The Europa Fly-In at Stade will take place this year the weekend 24/25 June
2006. We expect the weather to be better at the end rather than at the
beginning of June as last year.
Requests for accommodation in the "Tenne" nearby in Agathenburg please ASAP.
Welcome to all who might attend. Fly by's at other times welcome upon
request.

That is not all of the similarities! It gets better. Pilot in front of
the spar. Plug in wing panels with pip pins locking the spar together.
Stabilator. It is so close to being just an aluminum incarnation of the
Europa it's scary.

Craig,
Congratulations on the first flight. Give the engine some time, as long
as "high" does not mean over spec. The temps will come down.
