Apparently the Popular Flying magazine Events Diary is wrong about East Fortune.
The Display was held on the 10th July when we were all at Kemble! Nothing

Hi Tom,
I tried to respond to your message but it came back to me....two days later!
Weird!
Anyway, don't understand the problem with the photos but when it comes to
email, anything's possible lately. Try sending to:
N914RB@earthlink.net
That should work as long as no attachment is over 5 megs. Anything else is
fine.
Thanks for all your help!

Dan,
I prep'ed the inboard pocket on the copilot side for the Tru-Trak
wing leveler. In my opinion this is the best one out there. You flush
mount the servo with the actuator arm protruding in the cockpit area with
the actuator arm going to the stick. I made up a bolt on unit with a tab
that allows for the rod end to bolt there. Then you need only the 2-1/8"
opening in the panel.
All you need is to put flox in between the skins to provide the
support for the bolts. etc.

I am planning to be there in the reserved Europa parking space just off
taxiway P1 ( I think that is what John Email us). Make a sign to show in
the windscreen that reads EUROPA .
You can only camp with your airplane in the "North 40" parking. There is a
place for "Home Built" camping very close to our parking.

Subject: RE: Europa-List: static port problems
From: "Andy Draper" <andy@europa-aircraft.com>
Dear Steve, We originally had the static probes made from aluminium, but found
that it was
difficult to avoid a burr around the small hole where the drill breaks out. You
cannot have a chamfered edge as this will adversly affect the static reading
so conventional deburring would have to be done extremely carefully. This relates
into higher cost. Doing a one-off wouldn't be a problem, of course.
We found that drilling the plastic probes left clean holes with good sharp edges.
We are still using the same pitot static head on our demonstrator which has
several hundred hours on it and has had its fair share of manhandling. We are
aware that the pitot static is quite a vulnerable part, so we are careful with
the port wing. Perhaps the workshop environment is more likely to result
in damage than in the hangar, workshop or exhibition hall.Regards Andy >>>>>>>>>
Dear Europaphiles,
I believe that this problem on replacing the static probe may be due to the fact
that the black cross-drilled plastic item as supplied by the factory for the
XS pitot static assembly may not be well secured in the end of the static tube.
Mine fell out at an early date.
I recommend that all who have the standard XS pitot static probe check that it
is firmly secure. If loose, some Loctite will ensure no further problems.
Cheers, John

pardon my ignorance, but there has been no mention of altitude in these
autopilot discussions. Do these devices only maintain heading by
controlling the roll? Is maintaining altitude still manual?
thanks,
Dave with the mini U2, having recently acquired a partially-built kit,
i am wanting to see as many completed birds at oshkosk as possible.
yours sounds great, so i selfishly say: make the trip. I look
forward to meeting you and all the rest of the Europa community that

Lets try this again, Get two static ports from A/C Spruce and
bond them in and hook them to the system. That should be the fastest

Pete,
Sorry to hear about the incident. I am in a similar situation as you. I purchased
a used/never been used NSI from a fellow builder who had the prop blades
trimmed at 59" for a direct drive Subaru. I inquired NSI and got the same response.
I was all set to install the new prop prior to departing OSH, however,
that will have to wait until I get back.

Dave,
I used Mr. Funnel which filters out crud as well as water. ACS stocks them. Regarding
OSH parking Europa is still providing a parking area (I understand that
this was pre-paid) and that camping is adjacent. I have spoken to others that
have camped and they state they have never had a problem with availability
even after a late arrival. Hope to see ya there.

Hi,
Does anyone out there know of a good source of fuel filters for servicing the
airplane?
I imagine a filter that would be built into a funnel, which would have
a small enough diameter to attach a hose and insert into the tank. I have a
filter like this from Summit racing, but it is huge and does not work very
well.
Thanks,

If you have the opportunity to get to Oshkosh, try not missing taking a look
at the KR-21. Check out how you pull off the prop on a tapered shaft with key
way. Clever those old folk.
Please be relentless asking questions yourself, and having others (many) ask
if the installed GPS is "Original".

As we were told at the Europa Club AGM we will have three members standing for
the National Council of the PFA (Jeremy Davey, David Corbett and Alan Twigg).
I have just discovered on the PFA web site that the AGM is to be held at Turweston
Airfield on Sat 4th Sept starting 10.30 (although this seems to be for speakers
before lunch) with a buffet lunch for those that register and the AGM
in the afternoon.
a) it would be good if all PFA members could vote for our 3 nominees to ensure
that we have a strong voice within the movement.
b) It has been suggested that as many as can attend should do so as 1) I am sure
that the PFA would appreciate a swelling of the numbers 2) support for our nominees
in question would be an additional vote of confidence 3) it could make
a good Europa day out.
As I intend to attend can I have a note of any others who intend to do so to see
if car share/air share is possible.

I've had a fuel filler cover (part F40) on order from the UK factory for
2 months now with no joy or any explanation.
I am therefore looking for an alternative way of covering this area.
Anyone got any suggestions / pictures or indeed got a F40 not installed
that I could take a female mould from? Does anyone know who the supplier
of these mouldings is - perhaps they would be willing to sell direct
should they have any stock

Tom,
Alt hold is available from TruTrak. Just depends on what you want to pay.
Conventional wisdom says that the Europa's flight characteristics don't
really require it. I'm happy to have some help but will take care of alt
hold manually.

Mike - you're very kind and it's nice to receive appreciation.
Perhaps I should say that I'm serving the Club not as a professional
(ie one who gets paid to do stuff) but as an amateur (one who does it
for love - look up the etymology).
regards
Rowland

I haven't fitted mine yet but I have chopped it around a little to make it
fit. There's plenty enough to fettle something of use.
I can like others do a photo or you are welcome to borrow to make a mould.
I'm in Bath area. I've a nasty suspicion you're 'up North'.
Let me know.
Regards
Gerry

Subject: | Redux pre-warming before use???? |
--> Europa-List message posted by: Tony Renshaw <tonyrenshaw@optusnet.com.au>
Gidday,
Well if all goes well tomorrow I hope to bond in my module. It is winter
here in Aussie, however pretty tame by international standards. I have used
old redux once or twice lately, and it is really thick, I think due to the
OAT being about 10-15 for about 18 hours a day, and 15-20 degrees for the
remainder. So, my question is..........is it wise to attempt to prewarm the
redux, only a little, in my tucker box freezer with built in rheostat
light, or should I just leave it alone? If I leave it alone, and don't
preheat anything, well I will get a longer working life with my redux, and
once on I can then raise the temperature of the workshop to about
30+degrees C using my air conditioner. I am tempted with this method, but I
will be mixing and applying a coldish redux mix. Chemically I don't really
see a problem for a well mixed batch or two, and then the air conditioner
should accelerate its chemistry in situ. Any comments much anticipated, and
will be appreciated..

Paul,
I assume that you are talking about the cover on the fuel inlet. I bought
one of these but it really took the most part of a day to trim it and make
it fit. If I was to do it over I would make it. Take a look at Tony's WEB
site at http://www.kaon.co.nz/europa/272aw.html.
Paul

Rowland,
While your service to the Club may be as an ametuer, the results are that of

Hi Tony,
Well, here goes my $.02.
During our winter, my shop can get pretty chilly. I keep my epoxy and Redux
inside a cabinet with a 40 watt lightbulb on all the time. My working epoxy is
dispensed from the standard ratio pump. This I keep in a homemade foam
insulated box with a 40 watt lightbulb using a thermostat control to keep the temp
about 80' (27' for you). I find that I mix better and the less thick mix allows
any bubbles I cause to come to the top readily.
One other piece of info that I got off this Forum that makes much sense was
to also have the parts that you to be epoxied up to temperature also.
I have been adhering to these ideas and they seem to be working.
