It seems bureaucracy is a booming business.

Thanks Visit - www.EuropaOwners.org ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:27:01 PM PST US From: "Fergus Kyle" Subject: Europa-List: Coolant temp on a 914 Good-day, In my writhing to complete the wiring for this project, I dimly recall the need to add a coolant temp sensor and indicator to the stack - and that someone had volunteered a source for same. I believe the sensor lay in one of the coolant lines but not sure where. I am begging for info on this topic (as I have for many before it) and would appreciate any reply. Cheers, Ferg PS: Am wiring in a Dynon EMS-D10 screen. ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 01:03:55 PM PST US From: Robert Borger Subject: Re: Europa-List: Coolant temp on a 914 Ferg, There is a temperature sensor and fitting that goes in the line between the coolant filler manifold and the radiator. I purchased mine from Grand Rapids Technologies ( http://www.grtavionics.com/ ). The temperature sensor is $18. They don't list the fitting on their accessories page and but it is Part No. H2O-Fit-01 and the cost was $30.00. Contact Sandy (sandy@grtavionics.com) or 616-245-7700. If you wish, you can see the sensor, fitting, installation instructions & final installation at my build web site. Album Year #7 Q1 2008 middle of page 1.

Regarding door latches...the build manual speaks of bending an offset into the inner latch arm, DL03 but makes no mention of the distance of the offset...What works? 1/8 inch? 1/4 inch? Also, is there a clever locksmith among us who has added a keyed lock which keeps the shoot bolts in place?..or provides security in some other fashion? Any references to pictures would be much appreciated. Some time ago, there was concern about the window frames bulging and as I recall, Cliff Shaw had a very clever albeit complex third (vertical I believe) shoot bolt. Might not "bulging" be more easily handled by adding a bid stiffening angle along the interior bottom edge of the window frame? (Or is the bulging the result of failure to relieve cabin air pressure by not venting the baggage bay bulkhead thence out thru the recommended drain holes at the underside of the fuselage?)

But others have done the same with just a Fixed post in the center that they just pulled the window down over and was a much simpler mod. I have neither and really don't notice a problem. Man you need to get done! I need another Europa up here in the islands to fly with! Take care.
