From: "GTPowell" --> Europa-List message posted by: "GTPowell" I am interested in the tailplanes and rudder, and possibly the doors and cockpit window. Are these still available, and what would you want for them?

You did a very nice job! Funny, I was once a mechanical engineer but somehow I was never exposed to winding springs nor had I considered it. Thank you. I have learned something. I am going to try to make another from the extra wire just to see if I can. Thanks much.

I take my hat off to your effort at designing your own lighting circuit, and thanks much for the detailed description w/ pixs. As you know, I plan to utilise the combination LED position lights, strobe, and landing lights available thru CreativAir (http://www.creativair.com/). A good picture of this set up with access panels on the Europa is available at Jeff Behrness website for A055, at www.N55XS.com/ (go to photos and narrative of May 10, 2004). For those interested, I posted some pixs of the polycarbonate light covers on the matronics photoshare back in Nov., 2004. You appear to have completed your installation without the access panel on the underside of the wing ala Jeff Behrne's installation.
