Good Day All,
I have a quick question....I have been unable to find information on the
Forum archive nor on anyone's build website.....so I pose the question here.
When you trimmed the top portion of the fuselage along the trim
lines.....how much overhang was still left on the top portion that overlapped in
front of
the firewall? I can't seem to find any scribe trim lines along this section
and was wondering how much people had left after trimming.
Thanks in advance for the input.

Just about to put the top on but still finding little things to do before
that.

Mike,
Leave about 1 inch overhang at the firewall.

Hi Mike,
Had the same question for Graham Singleton when he was here last week, and
his advice was to leave about an inch.
Regards,

Hi! Mike.
Have you tried to resurrect the scribe line with a pencil and using it
like a "rubbing"? If that doesn't work I'd suggest about an inch
Minimum.
Regards

Dear Gang
Since my manual, Europa Monowheel Page 32-4, 16/12/96, Issue 4, tells me
nothing more than the route for the brake hose and to use P clips .........
I presume the 3 P clips P408008 which are nylon, are the ones to use -
but has everyone drilled through the leg and bolted them on?
Or used AN525 drive screws?
Or what please?

I'm installing a Rotax 912S in my Europa. The Rotax installation manual
suggests that a heat shield should be installed beneath each carburettor but
the Europa manual doesn't mention anything about them. Did anyone install
them and what did you use?
