| Subject: | Redux pre-warming before use???? |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Neville Eyre" <neville@europa-aircraft.com>
Hi,
The Redux / Araldite 420 should be stored in a warm environment [ 20 C to 25 C
] at all times anyway. If it is kept at too low a temp', it will crystalise with
''lemon peel'' looking flakes present, which will not fully mix with the blue
hardener[ the green mix will still have the lemon peel bits floating around.]
If your Redux has gone this way..... put it in a pan of water on the stove, and
simmer whilst you stir, the peel will blend back into the main body of the adhesive.
Try and have everything at the same temperature, ie the resins and the parts to
be glued , you will have more than an hour at 25 C, to get the parts together.
The time life on the can is very conservative, if the Redux has not been allowed
to freeze, it is good for a year past the ''sell by date''.
Cheers,
Nev.

--> 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..

--> Europa-List message posted by: "David Legge dlegge" <dlegge@socal.rr.com>
As I understand it, you can list the MGW as 3600, but during the test phase
you must demonstrate it. The basic rule is if you did it in the test phase,
you can do it in unrestricted flight. If you did not test it, then you
can't.
The FAA is in place to both regulate and promote. The rules are designed
with the presumption that the builder is qualified and does not have a death
wish. But just in case, they try to assign you a test area clear of
civilization.

Cy - "W&B" - that's weight & balance, so aren't they looking for a
weight that is appropriate to the airframe design rules? Or are they
going to be happy with any old weight you stick on the form? Surely
the FAA won't accept it if the builder says "I am comfortable for my
Europa to have a MGW of 3600 pounds", for instance.

I suggest you stay with the wing mounted static. In the early days both
pitot and static were tried on the fuselage to minimise wing-fuselage connections.
The pitot was mounted at the top of the fin which surprisingly worked OK
except when at high angles of attack. This was moved to the relatively undisturbed
air under the wing. Although the fuselage plcement of the static (either
side of the rear fuselage) worked on some aircraft, the helical propwash
caused problems with some aircraft and after several trials it was decided
to move that to the wing as well. I tried a blade type wing pitot static
head. That worked OK with some aircraft and not others which shows just
how unpredictable it can be. The factory setup seems to be the most reliable
setup so far. I have got a quick disconnect to allow me to provide alternate
static using cabin pressure. Although I have not tried it some owners find
it works well.

I had a combined static / dynamic head. The Static line got blocked,
and I cant clear it, so am running on cockpit static ( I.e. the line is
unplugged from the wing ) The difference is unnoticeable. (Have checked
in a variety of flight attitudes, airspeeds and configs, and against the
GPS on a triangular course.
(The original static position was behind the wing, and this made a huge
difference when the flaps were deployed, hence the combined head)

You could try using internal static which means that all you need to
worry about is a 1/4" tube with a bend in it for your pitot.

I'd say that we ROTAX owners here in the U.S. should continue to let
them know how much we really do want Shell Advance VSX4 available on
this side of the pond.

| Subject: | parallel fuel system |
--> Europa-List message posted by: nigelcharles@tiscali.co.uk
I had several people approach me at the PFA Rally enquiring as to the situation
with my parallel fuel system. It has been working well for 2 seasons now
and I am pleased to say that the PFA are prepared to allow it to be copied
as a mod. It is suitable for Rotax 912 and 912S engines and may be OK with
other non turbocharged systems. Ted Gladstone is the first to follow this
up and hopefully we will be able to make it a Club Mod in due course. I
will be writing a article covering its latest stage of development which
will appear in a future issue of the Europa Flyer.
Basically for those who are not aware, it uses twin electric pumps (one
at each tank output) and with the benefit of a pressure switch enables an
auto changeover when the main tank is exhausted (or in the event of pump
failure). As the mechanical pump is no longer used there is a minimum of
fuel tubing forward of the firewall reducing heat transfer. This tubing
is heat shielded and with ram air cooling no bleedback is required greatly
simplifying the plumbing. Careful arrangement of the electrical system ensures
minimal risk of total electrical failure. As all electric fuel pumping is
used in the Rotax 914 and Subaru the precedent has already been set in this
respect.
Other UK based builders who are interested should contact me so that I can
guide them through the PFA requirements.

Loctite or Redux, Ron? I suspect the latter as that's what I was told to fix
my new one in with.
Tip for builders - once you've fitted the pitot, take it off again and put
it somewhere safe until you're ready to go flying!

Hello Jeremy
Probably is Redux. It looked a bit light in color though. The let go point of
adhesive is above melting point of plastic.

I am on my way to Oshkosh and will be there Tuesday through Thursday.
As many will know I have been on the Europa Club Committee in the capacity of Newsletter
Editor for the last 8 years, just standing down 2 weeks ago.
I will attend the Europa Forum on the Tuesday afternoon and if it is so desired
I will have a brief say filling you in on what I currently know and the position
of the Club. I will also be able to take on board any suggestions any of you
may have regarding what you would like the Club to do for you, especially if
you are currently not a member and those suggestions would prompt you to join.
I am writing this on the (Thursday) evening before I leave, so I will not be able
to enter into any on-line discussion before the event so make sure you are
ready to bring your suggestions up at Oshkosh. If you are not attending then maybe
you could find somebody who is to mention your suggestions for you.
Also, if anybody were interested in joining the Club on the day, I could supply
application forms and could take cash ($27).

If you are flying your Europa in to Oshkosh, I have some good news. Please
contact me via E-mail, or my cell phone at 863-370-9222 in the evenings. I
have some limited lodging available for those that fly in for the whole
show.
I also need a few volunteers driving in to help give rides to the pilots
that fly in.
Happy Flying,
John

David,
Due slow progress, I resolved early to skip OSH this year and
now regret it greatly but it's too late to change......... I will miss the
camaraderie of previous years and envy you the contacts. I will also miss
the opportunity to say how effective your tenure of the editor's desk has
been. Thank you for that!
I won't miss the chance to wish you a happy trip and useful time
at OSH. Gosh, nosh at the OSH ain't bad neither.

| I am on my way to Oshkosh and will be there Tuesday through Thursday.
|
| As many will know I have been on the Europa Club Committee in the capacity
of Newsletter Editor for the last 8 years, just standing down 2 weeks ago.
|
| I will attend the Europa Forum on the Tuesday afternoon and if it is so
desired I will have a brief say filling you in on what I currently know and
the position of the Club. I will also be able to take on board any
suggestions any of you may have regarding what you would like the Club to do
for you, especially if you are currently not a member and those suggestions
would prompt you to join.
|
| I am writing this on the (Thursday) evening before I leave, so I will not
be able to enter into any on-line discussion before the event so make sure
you are ready to bring your suggestions up at Oshkosh. If you are not
attending then maybe you could find somebody who is to mention your
suggestions for you.
|
| Also, if anybody were interested in joining the Club on the day, I could
supply application forms and could take cash ($27).

I use Mr Funnel too but you need to remember that it has a 120mu mesh
filter. The Andair gascolators have 70 micron, Rotax specify 100mu. It is
possible to block an Andair with rust particles that just got through a Mr
Funnel. The tiny crystals are small enough to wedge themselves into the
Andair mesh.

Hi all,
The ground crew is informing me that anyone who flies a Europa to Airventure
at Oshkosh should display a sign that says "HPP" and underneath "P1" it
also wouldn't hurt to have a sign that says "Europa Parking" if your plane
doesn't say Europa on it.
Have a great time at the show!!
John

The Branscombe event sounds good, Duncan. I presume you are considering
going on the Sunday. If
so I will be happy to join you.

William
