    Bob et al, I just checked my bill from Elba and the landing fee was just 1.29 Euro's. Not bad eh! However, the take off was also 1.29. Then there was parking at 12.40, airport service charges of 15.49, international passenger boarding fee of 8.01, additional passenger tax of 2.50 and another 5.16 for filing a flight plan, all plus 20% tax. And avgas was 2.74 / litre (compared with about 1.75 in France). However Elba is a beautiful island and well recommended despite the costs.

    There is indeed a Europa model for the X-Plane simulator. One may download it from www.x-plane.org. It is in the version 8/homebuilts directory. You probably need to sign up for a free membership to have download privs. -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=132653#132653

    I couldn't agree more. Really a nice weekend. Driving 15 hours each way was no picnic but maybe next year we can fly. The North American builders who were not there missed a great gathering. We hope to see many more there next Year. Jim and Lynne Puglise. -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Steve Crimm" <steve.crimm@stephenscott.com> We are now home after attending the first annual RR Europa Flt-In. This event drew the largest gathering of Europa's at a single location, totaling seven, in North America. With attendees arrived from as far away as South Florida, Southern Ontario, Long Island, Louisiana, Michigan,Wisconsin, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, and Georgia I can say a good time was had by all. I would like to thank Paul for putting this all together and the location is an excellent spot for aviators. While we were there, every morning there were several aircraft that flew into RR for either breakfast or dinner. The food was very inexpensive and all you could eat and the accommodations were very nice. Our room over looked the lake and was very pleasant when sitting on our porch. Bobbi and I had an excellent time, enjoyed meeting everyone and look forward to next year when we will have an even larger gathering of Europa's in an effort to break the current North American record.

    Subject: ICRA rant off topic
    I realise this is off the topic - if not applicable to aviators and builders. Somehow, I have inherited an asinine program from ICRA. This outfit is based in UK - so you British-based readers are personally responsible......... It is my bounden duty to research and digest the causes of aircraft accidents. These provide the answer (usually) for one of two alternatives: (a) "there, but for the Grace of God, go I" - that is, I might have done the same - oh-oh (b) "that's not me" - the man was a fool, I wouldn't have done that (right or wrong) One of my sources (and an excellent one at that) is the UK Aircraft Accident Investigation Board - a long-standing and valuable preventive source. When I seek out the bulletins, aaib.dft.gov.uk/publications/bulletins/May_2007.cfm, for instance, I am then presented with a choice of particular events, or a compendium of preliminary remarks prior to formal investigation, when I opt for a specific report, this stupid ICRA program cuts me out - perhaps it's bad for my id. Id idn't. Ferg

    Subject: Redux in Fuel
    From: "danbish" <danbish@norwalktucson.com>
    Just wondering.... On the post regarding the FS02 for the sight gauge, someone mentioned that the redux in the fuel breaks down over time. Considering that the Singleton fuel fittings mod calls for reduxing the finger strainers to the fittings, is it possible that this will fail over time and leave the strainers rolling around in the bottom of the tank? Just wondering.... Thanks, Dan Visit - www.EuropaOwners.org

    Dan, I noticed the same post and can't help but wonder when the build manual also calls for redux'ing the strainers and scavenge pipes to the standard fittings in the tank bosses...I've gone on (the perhaps incorrect) assumption that redux was impervious to fuel (including various formulations of autogas).

    Fred Last spring when I inspected mine (7 years in fuel) they were fine.

    Subject: Redux in Fuel
    Hi! Dan. My seat back gauge used redux and hasn't deteriorated. It did leak but only where it was bonded to a plastic tube. I smothered it with some silicone sealant and it has held, unlike my main filler pipe which chose today to pop off the silly short connector pipe to the main tank, after having been dried out for a year it has now gone porous having stood in some fuel! BTW spec for fixing the original finger filters were bonded in place with redux to stand in fuel for ever !
