Merci.

salut Michel
Je pense que tu as seulement deux choses faire pour faire voler ta
Woodcomp
Obenir d'Europa un papier reconnaissant cette helice comme une option
montable sur l'europa. C'est une piece comme une autre!
Avertir ton controleur avec copie du document precedent
Il ne faut surtout pas leur demander le droit de monter cette helice car
dans ce cas, ne la connaissant pas il vont ouvrir le parapluie et tout
sera bloqu.Par ailleurs cette modification est de la responsabilit du
constructeur comme dit dans le nouveau document DGAC/GSAC qui traite des
CNRA CNSK. . Ref RP-42-50 . Va voir le 6.1.
Si tu n'as pas ce document je peux te le passer
JP
PS Le document du PFA peut sans doute aider mais ce serait mieux que le

Hello Tim,
Is it possible to send to me a PFA document concerning your propeller? I
have some problems with French administration... Thanks

I have recently taken delivery of an SR2000 prop for my Europa Classic,
but no flight details yet.
Woodcomp have developed a spinner to suit the Rotax powered classic
aircraft and I must say it looks great. At least one other classic owner
has ordered a Woodcomp so we can expect some news soon.

I heard a Europa builders buy this propeller in UK.
Do you have flight news?
Do you have a PFA documents to install this propeller with a 912 engine
on a Europa monowheel?
Thank you

Garry,
As a point of interest, how are your gas struts attached ? As per the
original Europa instructions or do you have the strut attached approx half
way up the door ?

Because I've had a few queries recently, just thought I'd better do a
broadcast to clarify the situation and save having to write many
individual replies.
Newsletter:
The March 2005 issue (#44) of The Europa Flyer is delayed in
publication. Our worthy Editor also has a day job, which has recently
taken him abroad and prevented him getting the newsletter put
together to the usual schedule. We hope it will be ready in the next
week or two, and I'm sure it will be worth waiting for.
Subscriptions:
Last month I e-mailed subscription reminders to a number of Europa
Club members. I deliberately excluded those who are known to have set
up a Standing Order. The aim was to make renewal quick & convenient
for those (mostly overseas members) who pay by credit card. If you
didn't get an e-mail reminder, don't panic! You (and everyone else)
will get a paper form enclosed with EF44 showing the status of your
membership and inviting you to renew your subscription if you haven't
already done so.
regards
Rowland

Kingsley,
My Europa was completed in 1999 and the struts are per the original
instructions............mounted in the upper aft corner of the door. The
constant pressure of the strut when the door is closed causes a slow
deformation of the door such that the corners stand proud of the fuselage.
I've thought about changing to the "new" configuration for the struts, but
simply have been too lazy to get around to it.

Garry,
You said:

Thank you for letting me know. My thoughts were that with the original
attachment (as I understand yours is), there is considerable mechanical
advantage around the gas strut attach point such that when the door is
forced upwards when the strut is fully extended, the rear hinge is
placed under a lot of load.
With the higher position of the attach point as it is with the alternate
positioning of the strut, the load on the rear hinge would be markedly
reduced under the same conditions.
In relation to your comment about the door buckling from the constant
pressure of the strut, I elected to adopt Ted Gladstone's lever idea
which completely eliminates all forces on the door when the door is
closed. This mod however, is not the easiest thing to do but I'm very
happy I did it. Just recently, a friend of mine who now has his Europa
ready to fly, showed me a gas strut he bought locally over here which in
its collapsed state is shorter than the Europa strut and is also longer
in its extended state. This allows it to be fitted in the alternate
position with its lower end further outboard effecting a better
mechanical advantage when the door is open. I.e.. it holds the door
open better. This may be an easy and economical way to overcome both
your problems . . . . . I repeat - maybe !
If you are interested in this strut my friend found, let me know and
I'll get the details for you.
Regards
Kingsley
