    Access to the members only area of the Europa Club website www.europaclub.org.uk is obtained after you have registered to enter. To do this, go the the home page on the site and click on "instructions to gain access". You will go to a registration form that requires you to create your own ID and password. Once you have done this it will take a couple of days to check you are a paid up member and then get the website updated to let you in. If you had previously registered but have lost your ID or password, simply register again using a new ID and password.

    Indeed there is, Bob. There are numerous links to the registration page, including one on the home page in bold blue text entitled "instructions to request access"! Once you've registered and Brian has validated it, your chosen Id and Password will be enabled. Please choose them carefully and be sure to remember them: although I can tell you your Id, at no stage do we know your Password, and the encryption used to secure it is so strong we cannot reverse-engineer it out of the encrypt. If you forget it, the only option is to re-register.

    Subject: Fuel filters
    Just a note that, if the base item for which a gasket is being made is tough enough (or better, if you can make a good template), this sort of material can be shaped very easily by placing it over the item/template and tapping around gently with a hammer. It splits like cardboard when bent, whereas a sharp knife can take serious muscle power with the inherent risks if it slips. But please, do be careful what you're shaping it on. A thin-walled aluminium cup will not take a beating, unlike the steam chests and clack-valves we make similar gaskets for in the steam locomotive world!

    Subject: Europa Club member login details
    Folks, I would warmly welcome any suggestions as to how I could make it: a) more obvious b) easier For registration: at present there is a link on the home page in bold blue text saying: "Paid-up Europa Club members may also follow the instructions to request access to the members-only pages of this site." There are also links in the Members Only navigation bar section, and on the home page of the Europa Club section. For access: on the navigation side bar there are links to 7 sections, the second being (in big, bold, blue text): "Members Only". There is also a link on the home page of the Europa Club section, as well as the link in the text above on the site home page. I don't want the site to be totally dominated by the members-only parts: I believe everyone wants it to be a resource for ALL Europaphiles, with some items reserved for those wishing to participate in the Europa Club. Short of changing the emphasis round quite radically and to the detriment of all, I'm a bit stuck for ideas as to how I could make registration and access _more_ obvious. There are some wonderfully useful pages on that site written by some of this Forum's most outstanding members. Please go and explore it with the same vigour as you do new places, new airfields, new countries and new landscapes in your Europa!

    If you want to see the difference in auto fuel and avgas. get a couple of styofoam cups and put auto fuel in one and avgas in the other. In a few seconds the auto fuel will disolve the cup . the avfuel will not. I mechanic showed me this and I told him it is a good thing my gas tank is not made of styrofoam!!!! paul baker ,912 uls

    Subject: Re: Fuel venting
    Hi Fred, I vented the tank to the neck since I was unhappy with the standard vent arrangement. The main problem I found was that the vent tube from the tank was too small and caused the fill pipe to back up and burp at low fill rates from a hose. The vent pipe also vented fuel onto the top of the fuselage. The changes I made have worked out well and consist of the following steps :- * Modified the vent fitting at the tank so that I could use a larger vent tube size (clear plastic tubing with fabric reinforcement, 3/8" dia I think. I can check if you wish). * Installed a tee fitting at the top neck of the filler. This was bonded into place with Redux. * The center leg of the tee is connected into the filler neck which was drilled to suit. One other leg is connected to the tank vent tubing and the third leg is sized for the original small tubing and goes directly to the vent on the fuselage top. * Another feature which helps during filling is that I have a 2" section in the middle of the fuel down pipe which is left unpainted. This makes it easy to check filling progress. I can now fill at basically the full flow rate and I do not get any fuel vented onto the fuselage top. I do not use a sight gauge arrangement. I have two capacitance fuel gauges plus my Grand Rapids EIS flowmeter and totaliser. Cheers, John N262WF, mono XS, 912S Mooresville, North Carolina ORIGINAL MESSAGE Subject: Europa-List: Fuel venting From: Fred Klein <fklein@orcasonline.com> I understand that some builders have vented the tank and the sight gauge to the top of the fuel filler pipe, taking care that the precise location will not allow fuel being added to inadvertantly flow into the vents. What I don't understand is...using the supplied fuel filler cap (which is specifically called out as "non-venting", again in the ACS catalogue)...how such an arrangement in fact can act to vent the fuel system. Can anyone enlighten me? Fred

    In the same vein Paul, if you want your battery to crank the engine first time at max power, wake it up with a few seconds of panel or lights load. Then turn that load off, give the battery a few seconds to recover and you should get 80%+ from the sleepy head rather than 60%- we usually settle for. naltpkt Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: paul baker To: europa-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, July 02, 2007 2:06 PM Subject: Re: Europa-List: Fuel filters If you want to see the difference in auto fuel and avgas. get a couple of styofoam cups and put auto fuel in one and avgas in the other.

    Subject: Rotax weights
    I seem to be on here a lot more than I should. In order to estimate what effect various units will have on my CofG, I have tried to access comparative weights for the 912 and 914 variations. All the old addresses for Rotax seem to have vanished (or at least I'm not in good order to receive them) and the one new address boasts "Products" but has only cute photos and little basic facts. I'm sure I could bug the distributor but think the factory should ante up the details. What is the useful address of the Rotax website giving real facts of it products? Please? Ferg A064 mono 914

    Ferg, Try www.kodiakbs.com This is the site for the North American Distributor of Rotax products and is the "official" site for North Americans to obtain product specifications and manuals. To purchase stuff you have to go to local folks in canada -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=121840#121840

    Subject: Re: Fuel venting
    From: "steve v " <s.vestuti@virgin.net>
    Hi John , i notice that you are still using the vent in the fuselage top, so, are you getting any fuel stains or spills over the fuselage from the vent when you are full of fuel to the Filler Cap and in The Climb? I am in the process of "drawing up" a similar arrangement to you except using two "ninties" and venting to the fuselage bottom - it would be eaisier for me to use my existing "roof" vent as in your arrangement , but, i need to know if your getting fuel spills when "full to the filler cap" with your arrangement, steve vestuti #573 G-CEBV approx 25Hrs of absolutly fantasic flying :D .

    Fred, I have done pretty well the same as John has. Take a look at http://europa363.versadev.com/ under July 2002 and you will see a bunch of photographs. I didn't use the sight gauge as the general theme on the forum was that it was pretty well useless. I used a system designed by Tony K that measures the weight of fuel in the tank with a pressure transducer, analogue to digital converter and a microprocessor to display the tank contents on a 10 segment LED display. It works nicely. Its most a back up to my fuel totalizer in my GRT EIS Paul

    Subject: XS Tailwheel and rudder stop
    From: <rparigor@suffolk.lib.ny.us>
    I want to install either a Graham Singleton tailwheel stop on my XS or replicate one. I am using stock rudder control horn arrangement and want to try and limit stress on horn and rudder stops. Has anyone added anything to tailwheel spring to prevent paint from getting hurt where stop will contact? Any pics? Next question is about right rudder stop, it seems that there can be quite a bit of force applied to it. Has anyone made this stop more robust? (welded a wedge with a forward screw perhaps) Any pics? Thx. Ron Parigoris

    Subject: Re: Safety Data
    From: "europa flugzeug fabrik" <n3eu@oh.rr.com>
    Excuse me, but raw data re Europa accidents is freely available from www.aaib.dft.gov.uk/publications/bulletins.cfm (vastly most of the cases) and from http://ntsb.gov/ntsb/query.asp#query_start -- both using query re Europa. Jeesh, we can competently build an airplane much more than a Pietenpol, post to the net re safety issues, but cannot do the simple "internets" keystroke/mouse-click thing? :-) Seriously, all the raw data is there. Very interesting, and mostly reassuring IMV, for this A/C type in hands of diligent builders/flyers. For those wondering about my pluralization of "internets," this refers to a quote by our aging, U.S. Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska trying to expound on his knowledge if this technology. So much so, Keith Olberman on MSNBC here constantly and similarly refers to the net as plural. :-) Our Senate is leastwise one-up on the House of Lords, who would never once so mis-use our non-native tongue!
