Duncan, I find that on approach idling I have 550 fpm down (from memory) and
this increases to 700-750 down with full L. rudder side slip. Not dramatic
but if you have got a forced landing approach almost right it is a perfect
way of fine tuning. If you are way too high then S turns are the thing, but
they bring their own risks of course. Regards, David

--> Europa-List message posted by: "flyingphil2" <ptiller@lolacars.com>
Stage 1 kit for a Europa XS short wing. This was delivered as part of Kit 493
with the intention of making a motorglider. The stage 1 kit though is for a short
wing as at the time, the motorglider wings had not been fully designed.
The resins are out of date but everything else is in good order.
Get in touch if you are interested.

Due to new business interests, I have had my kit sat untouched for about 18
months now so have decided to sell (and intend to buy a finished one once
sold).
Further details and pictures can be seen at

Peter and Steve,
Both your "auto" details may have peaked the interest of many other
Europahiles. Making your wiring diagrams available to the list could help out
many of
your fellow flyers. I would be very interested in seeing them.

Duane
Attached is my design for an auto up flaps mechanism. At first sight, it
may appear both complicated and indeed, overcomplicated but reading the
description should clarify whats going on and why there are a few more
relay contacts than you may think are necessary. I guess that this has
been installed on the aeroplane for about 100hrs and to date, has proved
faultless.
Any questions, please feel free to ask.
Regards
Peter

Subject: | Differential pressure guage |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "Jerry Rehn" <rehn@rockisland.com>
I recentlty purchased a differential pressure guage to measure pressure in
the cylinders. I have read the directions and am looking for those of you
experts out ther that have experience and that might give a step by stepon
the use for our rotax engines. Like pressures to set the guauge that has
pressure delivered to via the outside pressure and what to look for in the
other guage . What noises if any when the pressre in clyn. reaches it max
and what gauges are doing etc. I guess i'm looking for a step by step Thanks
for advice and help.

Subject: | 912 oil pressure help |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "nigel charles" <nwcmc@tiscali.co.uk>
Oil pressure senders have a poor reliability record with the Rotax. This
appears to be due to vibration. Some owners are on their third oil
sender after only a few hundred hours. As a result when my sender failed
I fitted a short length of hose between it and the crankcase. This
allows the sender to be mounted remotely reducing the effects of
vibration.
