With the rudder and tailplane fitted, just cut off enough to ensure that the rudder does not foul the trim tab. Repair the chopped off corner. Dig out a little foam make a good flox corner and a simple lay-up. Then fit/trim the flettner strips. regards, Mike.

    Subject: DOTH Friday
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "nigel charles" <nwcmc@tiscali.co.uk> I might be available to go to Brimpton. I have already used my Enstone voucher. When we went to Enstone about a week ago they were very helpful and friendly but it was more a case of tea/coffee and cakes rather than lunch so we went on to Kemble for lunch and accepted the 8 landing fee. If Brimpton proves unsatisfactory for food Popham is not far away.

I do not recall going there before. The freebee is in Pilot's April edition. It is a grass strip, and they = sell snacks. If the snacks are not up to much, we can always move on to = Enstone. Cheers.

    Subject: Trouble with Spruce?
    --> Europa-List message posted by: TELEDYNMCS@aol.com Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing trouble with orders from Aircraft Spruce lately? They've screwed up 6 of my last 7 orders from them. Things like shipping nylaflow fittings when I ordered polyflow fittings, sending AN4 hardware when I ordered AN5 hardware, shipping 21" of SKEET when I ordered 3' of SCAT, shipping "NO STEP" stickers that were cut so crooked that they were unusable, but not worth the money to send back, and most recently backordering 1/4" clear PVC tubing when they admit they have several hundred feet in stock at both locations. Looks like Wicks is going to start getting a lot more of my business even though their prices are higher. Regards, John Lawton Dunlap, TN A-245 DO NOT ARCHIVE

I have had some problems with the web site ordering when using my lap top computer, but only with my lap top (Apple MacIntosh Titanium Powerbook G4, Mac OS 10.4.6 & Safari browser v2.0.3), not with my deskside computer (Apple MacIntosh dual G4, Mac OS 10.4.6, Safari browser v2.0.3).

    --> Europa-List message posted by: Gary R Roberts <grroberts3@juno.com> I recently complained to Spruce about a shipment that was needlessly split into 2 boxes. I characterized the shipping charges as abusive. Received a reasonable letter of concern/explanation from management and the promise of an adjustment for the shipping. All that can be expected. We'll see how they do in the future.
