Hi! All and particularly our illustrious Safety Officer Mike Gregory. Having now completed mods 72/73/74, not withstanding the necessity for 10 hourly inspections continuing, if those mods are signed off by the Inspector does the MPD's still need entering and signing off in the airframe log book or can it be assumed that the mods being signed off supersedes the necessity to enter up the MPD's? ...paper and more paper....

Cheers Willie Harrison G-BZNY ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:04:02 PM PST US From: Graham Singleton Subject: Re: Europa-List: Paint repairs William I always use (and always recommend)"base white" for top coat. Pure white, no added colours to dim it or have to try and match in repair.

Check the Europa Website and mine, customflightcreations.com. I typically don't way in on the matronics site as I have enough business of my own. If you need a tank just email Roger at Europa in the UK or me at my website and we will get you a price and any spares you may need... Shipping on the tank will be via DHL and will add to your cost, but the new tank will drop right in unless you have a burning desire to build a new one. Both Roger and I ship direct to save time and cost. Roger takes credit cards and I take checks. Time to get parts is the same. Choice is yours. Bud Yerly Custom Flight Creations. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Hagar To: europa-list Sent: Saturday, August 18, 2007 12:11 AM Subject: Europa-List: Fuel tank leak For those of you who replied on your experiences in swapping out the tank in the fully built plane, thanks a bunch it has driven me to not dred the job. I am one of those guys who goes with the adage of "well if those guys can do it I certainly can". Jim B I will probably give you a call to get some more detail on the joint you described with the "recess". If anyone else can expand on the joint that gets the mess together in a structurally sound manner please do so. Now for the real question. Ever since Europa Lakeland went away with John Hurst I had blown off the idea of getting OEM parts and just figured I would fab every thing myself. A fuel tank would be kind of tricky, though I do have a buddy who is a real artist when it comes to welding aluminum (or aluninium for you other guys). Has anyone done this? Making the seat back 2 to 3 inches higher with a higher tank would give better back support with an increase in capacity. In any case does the tank have to be ordered from the UK or is Custom Flight Creations down in Florida actively selling parts and aircraft?
