Many thanks to all those who have responded to my pleas. To answer everone
will do as soon as the prop comes back from France. All other things as
suggested by various people have been checked out o.k.
Meanwhile I am keeping my hand in with a few hours in the Cherokee but am
ever in hope of getting the Europa airborne again at least by the Spring.
Off to Oz soon for a month and hope to fly there.

Having just read the last two days digests on this subject I am very surprised
that nobody on the right side of the pond has raised the "real" issue of mode
S transponders. Most European states have already mandated the carriage of these
expensive devices over the next five years for all flying machines, without
offering any of the advantages such as TIS (traffic information service) or
weather radar uplink as available in the US. All we will get for our St2000 or
thereabouts is a ready method for the NATS cash register to generate "air navigation"
bills when we fly from one farm strip to another.
While I fully understand that mode S has become necessary because of the shortage
of A codes in controlled airspace (category A through C), why on earth are
we being forced down this expensive road when all we do is enter D airspace on
rare occasions (the ATSUs of which will have plenty of spare A codes available
once the big boys are on S) - It just has to be for the money!

Following the discussion last year about water in fuel, I am about to
replace one of my in line fuel filters with an Andair mini gascolator to
provide a means of trapping and draining it. Andy tells me it is not an
approved factory mod but may be a club mod. I can find no information
about this on the club web site. Do I need to obtain special permission
/ approval or can I fit it and ask my inspector to sign it off?

Richard - if you look at the PFA web-site you will find
document TL 3.07 under Engineering.
It shows mod 10178 as "Fit a gascolator" and is a "mod
approved for all of type".
So long as you are fitting the same (-ish) type of
gascolator in the same (-ish) way the you call the PFA to
ask for the details of mod 10178 to be sent to you, you
get your inspector to sign the SF9 form to say that your
aircraft is suitable, you fit the gascolator, and then the
inspector signs it off on the SF9 as having being
installed correctly, with maybe a test flight.
You then file the SF9 with your logbooks, and the PFA is
informed at the time of the next annual.

Patrick,
We're probably abusing the list now, as this is rather non-Europa, but at
least there is some aviation-related stuff.
You're correct on the current Government. But I think it's wrong to tar all
politicians with that brush. Some I know are decent, hard-working, committed
people. I see no reason to expect the next Government to continue the
descent into self-serving that this current one began.
As for restricting our aviation freedoms - the PFA are working hard on that,
and I personally founded the Campaigning Aviators Network. I note that you
haven't volunteered to join it, though. Perhaps you'd like to do so and join
me and the other volunteers in spending some of our free time campaigning
for these freedoms?
Regards,
Jeremy

Brian,
My guess is that this is actually about 'sense and avoid' for UAVs, not
about en-route charging. If they tried to impose the latter, think about the
problems they'd have with the inevitable civil disobedience that ensued?
After all, if you're paying for that air-traffic service, why not use it?
Imagine the mayhem if 200 light aircraft flying see-and-avoid past the
Heathrow zone all tried to make courtesy calls to Approach at the same time
during the morning peak of arrivals from the US! Pure coincidence that
they're all passing at the same time, of course...
Like all aviators, I think that if they want us to carry Mode S in order to
help their UAVs, they should pay for the kit!
Cheers,
Jeremy

Yep I've got pretty much the same result, marineware have a few packs in
stock, Barry at Dauntless only has slow or fast not standard.
It seems that is only Europa that still use this "old" composite system,
(most chandlers incorrectly reckon its been discontinued!) and it's only
produced in very limited quantities as one off orders by SP systems...
Why does it need to be ampreg 20, not the more widely available ampreg 22 or
106??

Paul,
I'm open to correction, but I seem to remember that it's simply that
Ampreg20 is the originally approved resin system. I also vaguely remember
being told that it would be possible to get PFA Engineering approval to use
other systems like Ampreg22, but no-one has made such a submission to them.
(Please, this is not a cue for more complaints about PFA Engineering!)

Hi! Patrick,
I didn't really post the original message for any reason other than I
can see through the sham as being another stealth tax by the back door
onto already the most expensive hobby of General Aviation, just wait and
see.
However IMHO You are right on the button. The lies and deceit have
emanated from governments of all political persuasions particularly
about the European Soviet Project since 1972 and earlier. The current
naivety and apathy about politics by the population at large is playing
right into their hands. I for one will never bow to their bent
bureaucracy, political correctness, so called "public consultation" in
lieu of true democracy.
Anyone who fails to see this really is already overwhelmed by the very
deceit about which I claim and has their heads stuffed right up...(you
know where)...if they think their consultation will make any difference.
The Galileo project will provide the vehicle for aggressive government
controls in all our daily lives anyway, but those who fly for a hobby
will ultimately suffer a double "whammy" you mark my words.
There may be as much public consultation as you like but they don't take
the slightest heed just soldier on further armed by their claim to have
"consulted the public" ultimately giving no ground or compromise in all
"negotiations".
After all they would never have been able to make such uses of a
system controlled by another super power.
The only final chance of stopping the bureaucrats will be when they meet
civil disobedience big time like Maggie Thatcher found out over Poll
Tax.

Subject: | Re: fitting gascolator |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "William Mills" <william@wrmills.plus.com>
Hi Richard,
I was going to fit a mini Andair a couple of years ago, when they were all
the rage, but when I talked to Nev, he persuaded me not to bother because he
considered the twin filters was a better system, apart from the water
aspect. He suggested the Andair was more likely to block than the filters.
The only time I have ever found water in the tank is after it had been
standing out in heavy rain for several days and that amounted to less than a
thimble full in the reserve side. I assume you have the water drains fitted
to each half of you tank. I consider a fuel pressure gauge and a low
pressure warning light is the most useful equipment to warn against fuel
starvation and a blockage building up. Why not have a word with Nev before
you make up your mind?
When do you plan on returning to the WI? Perhaps we can fit in a doth
before you go.
Best wishes,
William

Subject: | Ampreg 20 resin, |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Paul Sweeting" <europa@percyville.plus.com>
Thanks Jeremy,
I have found a caution from Neville on a previous conversation regarding
some of the properties of ampreg 22 not being as good as ampreg 20.

Not sure what the specific properties are, or whether this was just the
factory line.
Obviously if I was to change resin system it must clearly be for a system
with same or better properties than the original...
Cheers Paul.

Paul,
I'm open to correction, but I seem to remember that it's simply that
Ampreg20 is the originally approved resin system. I also vaguely remember
being told that it would be possible to get PFA Engineering approval to use
other systems like Ampreg22, but no-one has made such a submission to them.
(Please, this is not a cue for more complaints about PFA Engineering!)

Jeremy

Yep I've got pretty much the same result, marineware have a few packs in
stock, Barry at Dauntless only has slow or fast not standard.
It seems that is only Europa that still use this "old" composite system,
(most chandlers incorrectly reckon its been discontinued!) and it's only
produced in very limited quantities as one off orders by SP systems...
Why does it need to be ampreg 20, not the more widely available ampreg 22 or
106??
Cheers
Paul.

I searched for some standard Ampreg late this year without luck, and then
tried Europa- they delivered it the next day!

Subject: | XS Spinner needed |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "KARL HEINDL" <kheindl@msn.com>
I have ordered a Woodcomp prop and they asked me to supply a spinner so they
can make a new mold for a proper fit to the XS cowling. My only problem is :
I am currently in the UK (Windsor) and my Europa is in Canada. Can someone
loan me his spinner for a couple of weeks, maybe someone who upgraded to an
Airmaster and has an old spinner lying around the workshop. I will pay
postage and a security deposit. I don't really understand why they have to
have a 'master', only the diameter is really relevant, but I couldn't get an
answer to that question.
I would return it as soon as it comes back to me.
Any help appreciated,
Karl

Subject: | 914 drivers only please! |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Terry Seaver (terrys)" <terrys@cisco.com>
Hi Patrick,
We had problems with vibration in that rpm range that had us stumped for
a while. It turned out to be a mis-match in the prop blade incidences
on our Airmaster prop. As I recall, one blade was almost one degree off
from the other two. Turned out to be a problem with the blade followers
that was eventually corrected by the factory. Depending on how the
blades were installed in the hub (and the orientation of the followers),
the incidences could come out fairly close, or be rather bad.
Regards,

Hope you have all your problems sorted now Ferg. There will be more!!
My particular one is vibration. Horrid airframe vibration between 2000
and 3700 rpm with my 914. Fuel drained and refilled, filters cleaned,
carbs cleaned and jets., carbs balanced with proper kit, set of new
plugs fitted,
engine mounts checked. New Arplast prop back in France for
re-balancing. All
plugs show equally nice and grey. I have run out of ideas. Has anyone
experienced similar problems and can suggest any other areas of search
please ?
Had no problems with the old Warpdrive (now defunct).
Patrick

Subject: | Fuel Qty Alternative |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Jim Butcher" <europa@triton.net>
Tony K's fuel gauge measures the weight of the fuel above sensor at the bottom of the tank and uses a computer to express this as fuel quantity. msi sensors (www.msiusa.com) sells a sensor called Level Master, Model LM. This is a 1 psig sensor that requires 5 VDC and outputs .5 to 4.5 VDC. A simple 5 volt regulator could provide the supply voltage and the output could be supplied to an analog voltmeter. The supplied sensor is in a PVC housing which may not stand up to gasoline, but an aluminum replacement could easily be made. The LM31-0000-001PG sells for 85 USD. 12 inches of fuel is about .3 psig.

Hi Jim. We attended the Europa workshop with Nihl and are sorry to hear
that he isn't going to be finishing it. If you are in contact with him
please wish him well and tell him his two workshop buddies from Texas
say "Howdy!"
