Paul, down into the aluminium 'U' channel taking air out of the engine
compartment - allows any leak to run out clear of anything really hot (the
critical consideration), and pretty much clear of bodywork. David Joyce,

Subject: | Re: Thoughts on Aileron Balance Weights |
Andrew,
We did it per the book and had no difficulity. Drilling the lead is easy - use
a spade bit and low rpm on the drill. We probably shaped our weights wrong (made
them too small) and didn't need to remove much from the port one and to balance
the installed aileron trim in the stbd we had to add tungston carbide to
get enough weight since the supplied weight wasn't enough and lead balls didn't
add enough weight in the space avaiable.
BTW, lead balls are much less dense than solid lead.

Hi Jim
Hope your project has gone well? Do you have the glider wings fitted
yet? If so expect me in Michigan some time this year to beg a ride!
I used tungsten carbide grinding dust for the weight too. I went to a
local tool grinding shop and swept their grinder clean, mixed the dust
with epoxy and used that. Much heavier than lead shot, probably heavier
solid lead.

Subject: | Araldite 420 / Epibond 420 / Redux |
After spending the last two days calling around manifacturers and
distributers of this two part glue I am giving in. The U.S. apparently
are an Araldite-free country.
I was wondering whether for a fee someone would part with his half-
finished batch sitting on the shelf ? Replacement-windshield arrived
today from Europa aircraft and is longing to be glued in place ...
Thanks and happy building ! (it's cool to be building again - thrown
back in time by ten years).

Subject: Europa-List: Europa Parts
Europa Owners/Builders,
Flight Crafters has over the years accumulated a number of Europa parts.
With Europa sales becoming somewhat limited in North America and storage
space at a preminum, we will make these parts available at near giveaway
costs
Parts range from small hardware items to control surface foam cores,
cockpit
modules, fuel tanks, trailer and lower fuselage half. Please contact me
offline or call for additional information.
We are still providing builder assistance for Europa's and will continue
to
do so.

Tom-
I am going to be in the same fix myself. Mine is badly out of date and I am not
sure if I can trust it. I went to Google and did a search for Araldite and
the second option is Freeman Manufacturing in Akron, Ohio. It appears that they
have it. Fire up your old reliable Google engine and give it a whirl!

Weren't Araldite and Epibond synonymous?
I was going to call these guys when the time arrived(it is in my notes):
Epibond distributor in America:
Krayden Industries
Denver, CO
1-800-448-0406
My alternative was the ES6228 adhesive from aeropoxy
You might try Graco Supply in Ft Worth. Call
(817)429-0466
I think they have Epibond 420
I haven't tried the numbers yet. Let me know if they work. I think I got
some of this info from matronix server.

Subject: | Another aileron mass balance question |
The manual does not say anything about lateral balancing of the
aileron. I am guessing that I should attempt to make the inboard and
outboard weights roughly equal. But I was not entirely sure about this.
Since aerodynamic flutter is not something I want to fooling around
with, I want to make sure I understand this correctly.
Thank you for any input!
