    --> Europa-List message posted by: DuaneFamly@aol.com Good morning Fred, Am I correct in my reading on this option is 75 lbs heavier that the Rotax? Doesn't this penalty negate any baggage carrying? However, I would be interested in what the final cost of an install like this would save people that are looking at the Rotax.

    Subject: Plywood between W18 plates in wing
    --> Europa-List message posted by: Andrew Sarangan <asarangan@yahoo.com> The manual calls for a piece of plywood between the outer two W18 plates. It says the plywood should be aligned with the front of the W18 plates. I am not clear about this. Should the plywood overlap the sides of the W18 plates, or should it overlap the leading edge of the W18 plates? My gut feeling is that it should overlap the sides of the plates, but I could be wrong. The diagram might illustrate what I mean. ========= |=======| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Plywood overlapping Plywood overlapping the sides of the W18 leading edge of the plates W18 plates

Also cruse through the Gallery http://www.europaowners.org/Gallery with over 4000 builders photos there's just about a picture of everything, including were to install a parrot or chiwawa. : ) Steved ---------------- This Email contains Photos or Attachments located at the following link: http://www.europaowners.org/viewtopic.php?p=4201#4201 ---------------- Visit EuropaOwnersForum http://www.europaowners.org/

    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Fred R. Klein" <fklein@orcasonline.com> Hey Mike, I can give you some short answers, but would prefer to hear from Neil Varcoe; when I get comments on these issues from him, I'll pass them on. You ask, > Am I correct in my reading on this option is 75 lbs heavier that the Rotax? Alex and Neil say their CAM 125 weighs 231 lbs.; I don't know the weight of the 912S or the 914. > Doesn't this penalty negate any baggage carrying? Alex's ship is approved for 1500 lb gross weight. > I would be interested in what the final cost of an install like this would > save people that are looking at the Rotax. Though the CAM 125 still retails for US$11,250.00, Firewall Forward Aero Engines, Alex Bowman, and Neil Varcoe have incurred significant development costs which, if possible, they would like to recoup if a short "run" of Europa installations are produced. Our present effort to get a group together to move ahead is the result of some prodding by Tony Renshaw after my postings some months ago. A price for a CAM 125 fwf package is not known at this time. Alex and Neil have said before that they recognise that the price would have to be comparable to the Rotax. My hunch is that the comparatively low price of the CAM 125 engine will be offset by the relatively high cost for the mods, special FG moldings and hardware. Personally, I'm attracted more to the prospect of optimal performance and trouble-free operation than I am to the possibility of significant cost savings over the Rotax. At this time I have a list of six builders who have expressed an interest in this endeavor; I spoke w/ Bob Masters of FWF today, and he's heard from two more, so I'm optomistic that if the economics work, we'll be going ahead. BTW, what's your situation vis a vis powerplant?

    Subject: Re: FWF Options
    --> Europa-List message posted by: DuaneFamly@aol.com Fred, As the tagalong on my signature, I am getting the last little details taken care of in order to put the top of the canoe on. I keep going through the emails about things to do and reread the manual and I am still finding little things. As for power plant, right now I am looking towards the 912S. I am not one to reinvent the wheel and take a pioneering risk of a new design unless I am getting a significant break on power, range, or cost. My wife even talked me into a conventional gear so she would not be afraid of my landings in a mono.
