Is this allowed anyway?

Gra,
My private consultanton IOM, (regular visitor) states that he is
unfamiliar with Ryan or Easyjet, but IOM airways is regular operator and
cheapest route is from Speke in Liverpool (20min) altho they operate from
Manchester and London as well. He believes BA do a service but not sure of
fares/skeds and BMI may also serve in concert with IOM.
Thass it.

I recall speaking to the Europa factory, and was adviced that it was
not necessary to treat the parts that are being bonded into the rudder,
tailplane, flaps, ailerons etc.. The manual mentions corrosion
treatment for the first time in chapter 8 (wings). I am wondering
what's so special about the wing hardware that needs protection?
Since I prefer a DIY process, alodine appears to be the easiest. A
google search revealed that there is no such thing as "Alodine", but
names like Alodine 1001 or Alodine 5200 etc... Being no expert in
metallurgy, I am at a loss which one to buy. Don't I also need an acid
cleaning agent prior to applying the alodine itself? Does this come

Is there a FAQ I can read about the alodine process?

If you mean towing great distances on a public road with the aircraft's
landing gear on the pavement, that is a really bad idea. Aircraft tires are
not designed to tolerate the heat buildup that road vehicle tires tolerate
so well, and about the only thing the two types of tires have in common is
color and that they are both made of rubbery stuff (but not the same stuff).
My primary flight instructor insisted that I keep my taxi speed at about the
pace of a fast walk because even the normal taxi distance from the ramp to
the runway could tax the tires at any faster pace.
Best regards,

Josok,
My fuel system piping is all 3/8@ alum tubing. I did essentially the
same as Steve, using Safiar drains as he, but was warned not to buy auto
parts unless the flaring cones were at 37deg. Most auto parts here and U.S.
(Weatherhead by name) are at 45deg for the bulk of fittings, but aviation I
believe are 37deg. The two are not compatible I am told. Weatherhead sell
37deg bits but you must confirm same................ I guess this is not a
problem if you are all flexible conduits.
FWIW

Sorry not sure about cheap flights but I will check it out for you,
although I would have thought you would have preferred to fly into Jurby
for "old times sake" Can anyone offer Graham a lift to Jurby?

Aircraft Spruce has exactly what you need: Metalprep 79 (P/N 79-QT for the
one quart size) and Alodine 1201 (P/N 1201-QT, and I think you can guess the
size). Sufficiently detailed instructions are on the labels.
The Metalprep is a mixture of phosphoric acid (the stuff in cola drinks!!)
and glycols in water and it will remove any minor crud including oxides on
the surface of the aluminum (and factory parts very likely arrived needing
nothing more than this treatment). The Alodine contains the somewhat
nastier chromic acid in water and should be handled with care and only while
wearing eye protection and gloves, although prudence suggests the same for
handling Metalprep.
Should you prefer another source, the manufacturer is Henkel Surface
Technologies at http://www.hstna.com/index.cfm
Check out http://www.buyhstna.com/docs/235110.pdf for details on Alodine
1201, and http://www.buyhstna.com/docs/234461.pdf for Metalprep 79.

Alodine is a chromate chemical conversion coating.
search using that
application is easy. wear rubber gloves. usually
degrease, Scotch brite, acid etch, and apply alodine,
then rinse in water. this is a loctite site that gives
the numbers.
http://www.loctiteaero.com/index.cfm?ID=170
I don't know where you live but chromate's are heavy
metals and have a bunch of restrictions. water soluble
and reactive(EPA)
might be better to make parts and find a local fab
shop to do the metal prep and eroxy prime. even thru
color coat. you may be able to order alodine thru
aircraft spruce. 1201 is gold, 1001 is no color. most
unpainted brite surfaces use the no color, most
painted parts use the gold.
plastic containers for etch and alodine because the
chromate will react with metal and weaken (even
eliminate the chromate from) the broth. . mechanical
application for touch up usually is to wipe surface
with rag coated in liquid. most specs say that wiping
of the surface is treatment enough. a long soak in the
alodine bath will give a nice gold color but it
doesn't add any more protection than the wipe.
some paints use other metal preps for conditioning the
metal surface prior to paint application. you can ask
your local paint rep.

Is there anybody in the USA that could relay a message to Dave Watts at Oshkosh?
Dave flew out on Friday and is visiting the show next week.
Many thanks,
William

You could try sending him a text - Dave usually has his mobile with him. His
number is in the front of any recent EF.

Hi Augustine,
I put a "boot" around my gear retraction arm by using a very thin
buna rubber sheet that I "glued" together with super glue. I purchased it
from that big supply house in Atlanta with the big yellow catalog. The
name skips my memory banks at the moment. Super glue is a really good
adhesive and it does not forgive if you put it in the wrong place. It
also sticks your fingers together :-))) I used the stuff to glue it
to the underside of the tunnel as it works very well there also. The
tunnel needs to be clean for all to work together. I also made a boot
around the fuel tank protrusions as they enter the cockpit area. This
sealed the undercarriage area from the cockpit area. Seems to be working
after two years with no problems.
