There is one crucial point that seems to be being missed in this discussion.
We have flown with ANR headsets for the last two years. Ours are not very
sophisticated as they are one of the very first ones made (made by Skyforce)
but the |ANR does offer a very good degree of noise cancellation and it is
true that this is mainly "bass" frequency".
We were thinking of replacing these sets for a more expensive version (eg:
Sennheiser or Pilot DNC) till my wife suggested that the noise might not be
coming from through the headset shells but might be amplified noise through
the microphone. Sure enough, when the intercom was switched off, the headset
noise was reduced dramatically. We have since conducted a flight where the
intercom was kept off for long periods and this was much more relaxing.
It seems possible that although advanced ANR designs may cancel out some of
this microphone induced noise it would be better if it could be prevented
from being picked up in the first place. My previous headset was a Peltor
(non ANR) and this used a voice activated microphone - I recall that again
with the mic off there was much less noise.
Before discarding our present headsets we are going to try and see if there
is any way of shielding the mikes from the ambient cockpit noise.
Has anybody tried to do this (or even used a throat mic).

I agree with Graham - but would add the warning that if you can't use
the Rotax locking peg, your choice of screw should be limited to high
tensile only.
A mild steel screw could shear in the crank the moment any significant
torque was applied to the crankshaft - needing an engine strip to remove
the debris.

The manual I have talks of "the crankshaft locking screw (part no 240
880)
>which is part of the standard tool kit supplied with each engine". Does
>anyone HAVE one of these. I don't remember seeing it !
There is a screw in the crankcase, LHS forard , take it out and you'll
see
the crankshaft has a hole to take the locking screw, so find a screw
long
enough to reach the hole, turn the crankshaft until the screw enters the
locking hole.

Yes and No, our radio and intercom are integrated (ICOM 200) so it would
require some rejigging to integrate a new intercom box in the circuit. Might
be easier to fit an isolator switch on the mic (so you could hear incoming
transmissions but not the noise from the mikes).
It may be easier to replace the headsets for ones that are cleverer at
killing the noise.

I have been using Navbox Pro for several years and find it excellent. I
have watched it develop from a basic product into something I really
wouldn't like to be without today. The only thing you have to be careful
with is making sure you fill in all the aircraft data if you want it to
calculate an extended Nav. log incl. weight & balance. It even taught me
how to fill in an ICAO standard flight plan form properly, how many of
us can remember how to do that without help?

Hi Steve
I have been using Navbox Pro for three years now and found it to be
excellent, My latest jepp database for my Garmin didn't include the
French
Danger areas, But they where clearly marked on Navbox, Its easy to use,
Do your flight planning on the computer and upload to a GPS, Or
download a current flight for later reference, You have Monthly updates
via Email to keep the infomation current,
A piece of kit i highly recommend!

You should be able to set the squelch to keep the level of background noise
picked up by the microphone to a minimum.
Effectively it becomes voice operated. The mike circuit doesn't work until
enough volts are produced inside the mike by the sound of your voice.
'orrible simplification !

Hi! Duncan ,
Only included in June since I made a special request having had mine updated
in April, Bendix King were unaware of the latest info. and undertook to
give me a further update by the end of June when they expected Jafferson to
have caught up ! Then they even tried to charge me again !

Hi! Steve.
I have worked well with the Flight Star Planning system and the Skyforce
Tracker IIIC GPS.
Especially having Ivor Phillips with me also using his Garmin 296 with his
Navbox flight planning down loaded .
The benefits of using both together are really impressive. The Navbox System
does however seem to pick up more smaller fields (Unless me being a dinosoar
hasn't explored the Skyforce more thoroughly!)
However since landing from my European trip two weeks ago the Skyforce has
sat in my office unused until yesterday and bingo there was an internal
battery low warning. All my previous flight planning has now gone, all the
damn settings have also gone. On enquiry at Bendix King it seems that from
the first warning of LOW Batteries you have a minimum of 50 hours (real time
not flying time) to change the batteries. Then to change the batteries you
need special instructions and a soldering iron! Hey Ho 'ere' we go again!
.....as the earwig said as he fell over the cliff !
Oh! BTW the Flight Star system did show me to fly through a mountain on
approach and departure from Lodrinho In Switzerland on the terrain profile.
Jefferson stand at Oshkosh two years ago refused to believe it so we had
them do a simulated route there and then on their big screen and hey presto
same mountain same problem, they weren't long taking it off screen !They
asked me to e-mail them about it later and they would attend to the problem.
After a number of e-mails I securred an admission that it had proved to be a
major engineering problem and to this date there's been no further
development. So be careful don't fly into mountains ......it's permanent!
Now since Tervor Pond has raised issue over new computors not having "Serial
Ports" I checked with the Bendix King Technical Guy and he says I do need a
USB Port to Serial Adapter but it may not work on some installations
but.....will have a better chance with Winows XP PRO !
"ere we go again" !

I don't think that is correct. The radio squelch sets the threshold for the
signal to noise ratio of the incoming radio signal. It has nothing to do
with mic circuit on the receiving aircraft. In practice, listening to a
distant weather broadcast for example: With the squelch on, it maybe that
nothing can be heard. However, adjusting the squelch, may well allow the
signal to be heard among the rest of the noise. On many modern systems, the
squelch is either on(level set automatically) or off.

Yes, Mike but my ICOM AC200 auto squelch takes most of the incoming signal
which you want also.! Dump the auto squelch control(Test Button ) you get
the signal from afar but all the other crap with it !

Hi! Dave and all.
Great news indeed, I seriously wish them every success.
It does occur to me however, that the statement clearly says 5 former employees
will be with the new company and goes on to name 3.
Hope their accountancy is better than this and the despatch department can count
better otherwise we won't be any further on! But then again the root cause of
the problem isn't one of the 5, as Dave anticipates us to ask, thanks for that.
Best wishes to Dave, Bill, and Nev too who all also must have suffered the
recent indignities and uncertainties of livlihood.

I was wondering what then filters out the tank water before one starts an
engine? The water drains take a sample from the bottom of the tank
(hopefully) in an admitted large sample - at any time. The gascolator drains
off water as it approaches the engine. To me these are two different
sources, one of storage, one of system...............?

Hi Steve
I have been using Navbox Pro for three years now and found it to be
excellent, My latest jepp database for my Garmin didn't include the
French
Danger areas, But they where clearly marked on Navbox, Its easy to use,
Do your flight planning on the computer and upload to a GPS, Or
download a current flight for later reference, You have Monthly updates
via Email to keep the infomation current,
A piece of kit i highly recommend!

Subject: | Skymap 111C & ProPlan |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Alan Stewart" <alan.stewart@blueyonder.co.uk>
Hi Peter,
I have a recent issue NavBox Proplan which I use seamlessly with my
Skymap 3C for route planning.
My PC is fairly powerful, has 1 1.7 Celeron processor, half a Gig of
double speed memory and a GeForce4 MX 440 display adapter.
However, when requesting a new, reasonably detailed 1/2 mil European map
(600 x 600), it can take 3 to 4 minutes to draw, during which time
Proplan is rendered powerless !
Does anyone know a simple solution to this rather irritating feature ?
Do others suffer in a similar way ?
The on-line documentation suggests this is due to drawing limitations of
the graphics chip and is 'not normal', but doesn't really suggest an
easy way to get around it ?
Alan

Nigel,
Do you have any contact information for Andy?
Thanks in advance,
Doug Lawton

Dear All,
Being one of those naive unfortunates who paid up front for the whole kit
and seriously suffered the consequences of EMIL's (Keith Wilson's)
"mismanagement" , I was delighted to hear that Europa (2004) Ltd has risen
from the ashes, Pheonix-like, of the demise of EMIL. It is great that Andy
Draper is heavily involved, too. I spoke to him on the 8th September, day 2
or 3 of the new company's existence and they were busy doing a stock check
of their newly acquired assets. While I appeciate that Europa (2004) Ltd has
no obligation to honour the contracts of EMIL, Andy was at pains to say that
once they have defined their strategy with regard to those in my position,
they will do their best to sort things out. However I would think we may
still have to carry our losses, in whole or in part, .
Of interest to you all, was that he advised me that the administrators was
busy "scrubbing their files", presumably having completed their duties to
the court, so the new company may not have any record of customers' kit
deficiencies. He suggested that I provide him with a list of those parts not
provided by EMIL in my kit. To help Andy gauge the size of the problem, I
suggest that all those of you still owed parts having paid for them,
provide Andy with the list of your kit's deficiencies as soon as possible.
Here's to the bright future for Europa (2004) Ltd. Cheers!!!

This afternoon was a stunning afternoon to go flying in North Yorkshire.
Happened by Kirkbymoorside - always nosey. Thought everyone would like
to know that the boys are back. Did several passes over the Europa
factory to say hello - the cars were there and the boys were outside
waving in their usual manner. It is pleasing to know that GJULZ is no
longer an orphan.

Subject: | re New Starter for 912S |

Serialize complete at 09/09/2004 02:34:07 PM
--> Europa-List message posted by: irampil@notes.cc.sunysb.edu
Greetings,
My understanding of the rationale for the new starter option
was that the new electric motor revved about twice the speed of
the original. The value of this increase is that the engine is taken
up to 600 rpm, well above the very cranky resonance where
the engine shakes like it is about to come apart.
I thought I might install it in my 912S, but the $400 starter
also requires an $800 mod to the gear box ($ amounts approximate).
I don't have a big resonance problem so far, but I was thinking forward
to cold New York winters. My thought now is that if it is too cold to
start, it is too cold to fly ;-)

Alan,
You'd get better performance from a full fledged processor. I find they
are much faster, when doing screen draws and calculations. The fasted
machine I have has a 1.7 Athelon processor and "it ain't no slouch".
Just my opinion...

3.40 NONSENSE BODY: String of nonsense text
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Mike Gamble" <mp.gamble@virgin.net>
Some time ago there was much discussion about the monowheel over retracting and
contacting the brake master cylinder and the slave cylinder contacting the tunnel
sidewall.
I find that this will indeed be the case with mine unless I do something about
it. There is also contact between the top of the caliper and the stb rudder cable.
What did you chaps finally do about it or, better still, how do you think I should
attack this problem to best effect?
Thanks

I run a 2 Gig processor with 1 Gig of DDR memory and a ATI 256 DDR graphic

Mike,
I have a classic with XS cockpit so have had same sort of problem.
My solution to brake caliper was to route (That's 'root') the starboard
rudder cable about 1/2" outboard (through the wall) in a 1/4" nylon tube
that is epoxied into position. It intrudes the cockpit living space but not
where there's much living going on.

This sounds great for me, I like genius people.
Better (for safe only) both of them.
If only one system,
you should have water drains first of all
(this is only IMHO like Bob always says).
Cessna people know that.
I have run my Cessna 475 hrs w/o cascolators
w/o problems, in any conditions through the Finnish year climate.
I like the idea of simple, safe-enough, lightweight, cheap and fast Europa.
And also the idea it is buildable in a lifetime...with family and some other interests.
So - no cascolators.
I trust my manual, literally (usually).
In spite of that, I have mod "water drains", of course.
I am sure Jos [couple of kilometers north from me]
will reply ;))
I am sure Europa people have large enough soul to read this.

Subject: | Transponder issues |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Paul McAllister" <paul.mcallister@qia.net>
Hi all,
I posted a similar note on the avionics list if anyone has some ideas please contact
me. I have UPS SL70 mounted in my composite Europa. Up until recently it
has operated faultlessly, but I a recent trip between Wisconsin and Arkansas
I had several complaints from ATC that they could not see my transponder, even
at 9000'.
I am unsure if I have a problem or not, the antenna is mounted in the baggage bay,
it is a simple "spike" type mounted on a piece of 6 x 6 aluminum. The cable
run is fairly short and it is RG400. I have reseated the transponder, the
connection to the coax and to the antenna and I can't spot any obvious problem.
During the times that ATC were complaining I was seeing a solid reply to there
integrations so the receiver seems to be working fine. I'd appreciate anyone's
input on things to check or trouble shooting ideas. I'd also like to know what
installations people have out there that are working fine. I am thinking
that maybe I have to mount the antenna on the belly of he aircraft with a ground
plane.
Thanks, Paul
