    Subject: Re: Sternpost fitting
    --> Europa-List message posted by: Paul Stewart <europa@pstewart.f2s.com> Mike Certainhly had the problem with the port side impinging on the foam of the fin such that the line of the fine would be greatly distorted with the stern post in place. We removed the area of foam to allow the fin skin to lie directly onto the stern post. We also reinforced the area of fin with a couple of plies of but and the whole lot fitted very nicely.

    Subject: Tri Gear Nose gear Bungee replacement
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "RICHARD IDDON" <riddon@btinternet.com> My Nose Gear bungee had gone 'soft' again so I have decide to replace it with the arrangement suggested by Kevin Pilcher in the latest Europa Flyer. I am however having great difficulty persuading the loop of bungee cord to stretch far enough to go from the nose gear, over the central bar and back down again. A loop of 16 inches circumference just doesn't seem long enough. Anyone else tried this and if so, did you stick with Kevin's dimensions or use a longer shock cord?

    Subject: Re: FINGER BRAKE SEALS
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "ivor.phillips" <ivor.phillips@ntlworld.com> Karl DOT 5 Silicone brake fluid is combatable with both types of seals i.e. Buna-N-(Nitrile) and Ethylene-Proplene, DOT 3/4/5.1 (five point one) is glycol based and should only be used with Ethylene- Proplene seals. The Automotive seals SP2044 and SP3694 are made of Ethylene-Proplene , So DOT3/4/5.1 (five point one) Or Silicone DOT 5 (five) is acceptable. MATCO Brake caliper Seals are made of Buna-N-Nitrile and will use MIL-H5606 hydraulic fluid Or ATF automatic transmission fluid OR DOT5 (five)Silicone fluid Your choice is to CHANGE ALL YOUR SEALS TO Ethylene-Proplene and use Glycol based DOT 3/4/5.1(five point one) THE PREFERRED OPTION IMHO, THAT'S WHAT I HAVE DONE USING GLYCOL DOT 5.1 (FIVE POINT ONE) Or use Silicone DOT 5(FIVE) OR CHANGE ALL YOUR SEALS TO Buna-N(Nitrile) which will use MIL-H5606 or ATF automatic transmission fluid or Silicone DOT 5 (five) HAVE A MIXTURE OF BOTH TYPES OF SEALS IN THE ONE SYSTEM MEANS YOU MUST USE SILICONE DOT 5 (FIVE) I hope that clears the misunderstanding regards Ivor Phillips XS486 London UK CM Installed, rudder cables complete, trial fit top and wings,Undercarriage fitted,playing with tie bar ----- Original Message ----- From: "KARL HEINDL" <kheindl@msn.com> Subject: Re: Europa-List: FINGER BRAKE SEALS > --> Europa-List message posted by: "KARL HEINDL" <kheindl@msn.com> > > > Ivor, > > > I am confused.

    Subject: panel material
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Rob Housman" <RobH@hyperion-ef.com> Since there is no possibility of hanging so much weight on the panel to allow it to deform, and all aluminum alloys have essentially the same modulus of elasticity, select any conveniently available 1/8 inch / 3 mm thick sheet stock, but you must also consider what type of finish you intend to use. For painted or powder coating, any alloy will do, but if you intend to anodize the panel then I recommend that you determine (I can't help you on this part) whether the heat affected zone at the laser cut edge will respond to anodizing in exactly the same manner as the rest of the sheet. I would expect that the folks doing the laser cutting will be able to recommend a suitable alloy. The commonly available alloys in sheet form are 2024, 3003, 5052, 6061 (the alloy I have chosen), and 7075. Although 2024 and 7075 are used extensively for structural shapes in aircraft, these higher strength alloys are over-kill (and over-priced) for the panel.
