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.

Hi Bob,
Go to the members only area on the website www.europaclub.org.uk and it is
the last item on the list of data available to members.
Oh, and before anybody asks why this is only available in the members only
area, we get a lot of very strange people accessing our site and we dont
really want a detailed list of all of our worst moments available to them.

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.
Kind regards,
Jeremy
(Europa Club Webmaster, among other duties!)

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!
Kind regards,
Jeremy

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!
Regards,
Jeremy

get a couple of styofoam cups and put auto fuel in one and

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.

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?

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

Fred,
My aircraft is vented, per the manuel, with one deviation. I added a
"T" at the top of the filler tube, that allows fuel to spill out into
the filler neck, before reaching the top of the aircraft. Keeps gas
from spilling out on my paint.

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,
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

Subject: | Re: Fuel venting |
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,

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

Subject: | XS Tailwheel and rudder stop |
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.

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!

Buna-N (Nitrile rubber) is widely used for fuel-proof O-rings.
