Yesterday i flew the ship from the airport to the lake in front of our place. It's
nicely moored to the jetty now.
This was the first time the Woodcomp reverse prop came in use. The ice was wet
and hence conventional braking action zero. Reversing and hitting the throttle
really brakes about as good as the monowheel brake.
Tailwheel and rudder control during taxiing was good enough to keep track. It's
nice to just have to walk to plane to fly, instead of driving to the airport
:-)

Jos! congratulations! That's another dream come true, yes? Must be nice
to have a 20 km long runway, but is it into wind?

Great picture Jos. What do you have in the way of a heater. It looks cold there.
I don't start work on mine because the garage is to cold at 55 degrees F.

Hi! Jos ...well done, for a second I thought "WHAT'S THIS HE MUST HAVE A
SET OF FLOATS ON !" then I got my brain wound up !
It puts a whole new dimension on the Europa operation. I guess a set of
ski's would suffice for the trike too ? I'm half sad I didn't go the
reverse prop way !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Regards
Bob H G-PTAG
PS you don't have a set of my Torque tube clamps fitted do you ?
