    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Kingsley Hurst" <hurstkr@growzone.com.au> > I will use either 1/2" nylon strapping or perhaps a bracket from Lockwood if it applies. Ferg, Don't waste your money buying anything. Just get a small scrap of flat steel about 1/4" thick. Drill two holes in it and weld a half link of a chain to it to form an upside down "U". In 5 minutes you will have a perfect fitting for lifting the engine at its balance point (in the case of the 912 anyway!) Cheers Kingsley

    Subject: Why Do I Have A Fund Raiser Each Year?
    --> Europa-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Listers, I was thinking that perhaps I should explain why I have a Fund Raiser and also take the opportunity to express why I think the List Services here provide a better experience than the commercial equivalents. I use the List Fund Raiser each year to offset the costs involved with running a high performance email list site such as this one. With the annual support from the List members through the PBS-like Fund Raiser, I have found I can run the entire site without having to inflect any of the members with those annoying banner ads flashing up all the time trying to sell Toner Cartridge Refills or other garbage nobody wants or needs. From the comments I've received over the years regarding the Lists, the great majority of the members really appreciate the non-commercialism of my List systems and don't mind my 'go-team-go' banter once a year to encourage members to support the Lists. I believe that the Lists services that I provide here offer many benefits over the commercial equivalents in a number of ways. The first feature I believe to be particularly significant is that you cannot receive a computer v*rus from any of these Lists directly. I've been on a few other List servers and have been unfortunate enough to download infected files people have innocently or not-so-innocently included with their posts. This just can't happen with the Matronics Lists; each incoming message is filtered and dangerous attachments stripped off prior to posting. I provide a Photo and File Share feature that allows members to share files and bitmaps with other members and everyone can be assured that these files will be prescanned for any sort of v*rus before they are posted. Safe and simple. Also, with this photo and file sharing technique, the Archives don't get loaded up with a huge amounts of bitmap "data" that slows the Archive Search times. Another feature of this system is the extensive List Archives that are available for download, browsing, and searching. The Archives go all the way back to the very beginning of each List and with the super fast Search Engine, the huge size of the Archives is a non-issue in quickly finding the data you're looking for. Another feature of the Archives is that they have been primarily stripped of all the useless email header garbage that seems to build up in a typical email thread. I've been running email Lists and services under the matronics.com domain since about 1989 starting with RV-List and 30 guys I knew and who where also building RVs. It has grown into well over 50 different aviation-related Email Lists and an associated web site that receives over 17,000,000 hits each year!! Additionally, the List email system forwards well over 32,000,000 (yes, that's 32 MILLION) email messages to subscribers each year! With all the dot.bombs these days, I think there's a lot of value in supporting a service that has gone the long haul and is still providing and improving a high quality service all without any advertising budget! I have to admit running these Lists is a labor of love and I hope it shows in the quality of the experience that you receive when you get a List Email Message, Search the Archives, or use the List Browser. The Lists will be here for a long time to come. If you just want to lurk a while for free, that's great and I encourage you to do so. If you use, appreciate, and receive value from these Lists, then please support them during the Annual List Fund Raiser! The Secure Contribution Web Site: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you, Matt Dralle Email List Administrator Matt G Dralle | Matronics | PO Box 347 | Livermore | CA | 94551 925-606-1001 V | 925-606-6281 F | dralle@matronics.com Email http://www.matronics.com/ WWW | Featuring Products For Aircraft do not archive

This is an American site which does recognise the pound sign so you must use GBP instead of the pound symbol ! Just to confuse things Americans call # the pound sign, which we Brits call "hash" or "sharp" in music. I only worked that out recently, bit of a shock ! I assume you meant that the plugs were 10 GBP from Rotax and 2.50 GBP from the bike shop ! Richard

    --> Europa-List message posted by: "G-IANI" <g-iani@ntlworld.com> On behalf of Terry Clark who does not monitor this forum. Europa G-IRON, a hightop trigear, 914, Airmaster 332 made her maiden flight at 15.03 on Monday 14th November at Blackbushe Airport (EGLK Camberley Surrey). P. Jeffer is the test pilot. Despite checking and rechecking everything the nose wheel spring had lost some of its tension. Small problem with a disconnected wire in radio (We had had the head panel off on Sunday to check door adjustment). Three flights on Monday total time 1 hour. Tuesday prop balance before more flights. This shows prop has a wobble at 3000 rpm not preventing flight but must be fixed for sign her off. Two more flights (Total 50mins). Final decoration and upholstery still to be done. She has come out rather heavy at 950lb so some weight reduction is also needed.

If there is someone El's in the west Yorkshire area interested in joining me in a joint project I would love to here from them. I can be contacted through my website http://www.shop4it.uk.com/g-irpw Thanks ---------------- Visit EuropaOwnersForum http://www.europaowners.org/

The distance between shooting boltss points (when open) should be 947 mm. I have followed strictly revised manual and my push rods are perfect. For example shorter one from roll pin centre to roll pin centre is just 137 (earlier 133) mm long. I made them using suplied round bar and it was quite easy but "challenging" and labourrich. After all the distance is 942 mm (both of doors). Have you any idea where is missing 5 mm? Longer one is looking good but shorter one should be 142 mm long to be good and safe enough (notice: just in my case and in my doors only!). Shooting bolt of the shorter push rod does not come out enough. I will do new ones (will take only one night) but those of you who have not been there, be aware! Regards, Raimo (not yet grey hair at all) ========== Raimo M W Toivio OH-XRT #417, 1181 hrs so far OH-CVK OH-BLL 37500 Lempaala Finland tel + 358 3 3753 777 fax + 358 3 3753 100 gsm + 358 40 590 1450 raimo.toivio@rwm.fi www.rwm.fi
