Thanks Ira. I been outta the build loop so long on this thing that I've lost a
lot of interest. Basically just need the exhaust pipe to complete the annual,
fly off another 15 ours, then put the interior in and it'll be ready to sell.
Market so soft on Europas tho that I may just hang onto it a few years and
fly when I can.
Take care,
Paul Boulet, Malibu, CA N914PB

Unlike the 912s the 914 uses a specific Rotax set of parts.
California Power Systems in the Bay Area is the biggest Rotax Dealer/
Supplier on the West Coast(as you probably know).
They should be able to help you out.

Fred - thanks for the kind words - I try to make it as useful as I
can to me, and if in the process it helps others, that's a bonus!
The vinyl was 1.36mm (see the entry for 2007-11-25) but I would guess
that anything up to about 1.5mm would be OK. The vinyl does tend to
compress a bit if you get the recommended amount of weight on the
joint.

Folks,
I need a set for the 914 engine I am building up for my fuel injection
project and when I looked into the price a price a year ago they were
$1100.00 per pipe, and no doubt cost more since the shift in the US
dollar to the Euro.
I did notice that Jason Parker has a nice looking set of pipes and
turbocharger manifold that he has fabricated for his turbo charged
Rotax engines that he offers on his web site at
http://www.experimentalfuelinjection.com/wst_page4.php.
I haven't had any luck in getting him to return my emails, I suspect
he is only interested in selling complete engines.
I would be interested to hear if anyone finds a local manufacturer for
914 Exhaust pipes.
Paul

I spoke to him at length a few times about his engines etc, he kept
indicating that he was happy to sell kits for other engines, as at that
stage
he couldnt source any more ex military 912 or 914 rotax engines. At the time
i believe he was quoting around $4000 for a redundant EFI setup
for the 914, he was also offering me a complete setup to take a 912 to
914efi, he was however a bit slow in responding to emails, sometimes
up to a week

Hey Guys
"I would be interested to hear if anyone finds a local manufacturer for
914 Exhaust pipes."
A local IA swears by (not at) Dawley:
http://www.dawley.net/
for Certified Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft stuff.
He has had special stuff made up for oddball aircraft and was very happy
with results.
Worth a call, let us know outcome.

| Subject: | FW: Wing fillets...per prevoious discussion |
Having discovered what Mitchell prescribed for the Spitfire (which
can't be all that bad, I decided half-bad was better than sharp corners, so
went half way... The method was to fit foam forms to the flap area and
carve a suitable shape which would slide the fillets under the GraSing ones
at the trailing edge. PLUS I thought the fillet, when flaps extended, might
serve partially as a fence to prevent unnecessary air being dumped off the
flap.... Maybe not.
I have uploaded 4 photos of my project. showing the installation of
fairings/fillets.
Go to the EuropaOwners gallery and I'm about fifth album down
The series shows (I hope) fourth, a mod to one flap inboard end. The
fillet slides under the trailing edge end of the main fillet, visible in the
first three shots. I began with Graham Singleton's excellent fillet set, and
embellished by extending the function to the flaps.
Further explanation, on demand.
Cheers, Ferg

Jason parker,
Take a look at www.experimentalfuelinjection.com and click on the Europa link. This is the motor I just finished for Curtis. Bud also has the same engine. I would like to thank Bud for his help. Without Bud lending me his engine, I would never have been able to build and engine that would have worked for Europas. Unfortunately I have to buy new engine from the factory and convert them. The price of a zero time fully redundand intercooled 914 is 30K. All my engines comes standard with a 55amp alt and a wideband 02 sensor.

Hi Ferg
"The method was to fit foam forms to the flap area and carve a suitable
shape which would slide the fillets under the GraSing ones at the trailing
edge."
For what it's worth I remember hearing that filling the flap close to make
the inboard side flush caused carbon monoxide to work its way into
cockpit.
