Mike and others
I will know the cost of the arms in a week or so.
The Mod application covers the Navaid, TruTrack and Trio SINGLE AXIS (Roll)
only. I started by doing the TruTrack but Andy asked me to do it as a
generic mod for all three. This means that the old Navaid mod (10507) will
be replaced with this version. The continued use of the Navaid Servo with a
new head (Trio) is (from memory) covered. The mod also refers to (rather
than repeats) the LAA document "LAA Inspection Checks LA/IC-APWL".
I am aware of two owners waiting on the approval, one TruTrack and one Trio.
If anyone wants a copy of the draft Mod let me know.
As you say turnaround of Mods with the LAA can be very slow. This is
particularly true if they are not holding up someone's permit to test. I
have chased Andy again this week.

Subject: | New Europa Website |
To let you all know the new website can currently be viewed at
www.europa-aircraft.co.uk. It should be noted that there are a few small
errors that we are still ironing out but we hope to address those by the
middle part of next week. If you have any comments please feel free to let
us have them. Also as soon as we iron out a few last minute hosting issues
this same site will be available at www.europa-aircraft.com as well as
www.europa-aircraft.biz.

Subject: | Autopilot Pitch Servo jams control and pilot lands safely |
Dear Europaphiles,
For those of you with autopilots installations, please read the following thread
:-
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=36393 On the third page of the thread there are pictures of what the pilot found after he landed and investigated. He was a lucky guy.
Also on page 3, there are some further comments regarding the servo cover plate
screws which have been found to be loose on some installations. My earlier impressions
had been that Tru Trak makes some nice equipment. However, it seems
that their servo design needs improvement.
Cheers, John

Great website - nice and modern and very professional (and still has all the links
to the info that the old one did).
Well done.
Nice to see the Europa fighting back against all the new designs.

I agree... The site and the Idea we have a new and hopefully forward
thinking Europa is quite exciting.
May I suggest without starting any flaming as they move onto some new
Ideas. For all us tri-guys... I mean those of use with 3 wheels in the
breeze ;o) a new design to the cockpit module with the room of the
tunnel downsized. I did a mod with Gold Rush that cut it down but I'm
sure with the right engineering the strength gained from the tunnel
could be compensated with something a lot smaller. I guess for that
matter it could work for all you conventional gear guys as well. Nice
to see bright things on the horizon for our beloved bird.

Dear Ian,
The one waiting for the TruTrack approval is me, I hope. Otherwise you may
me count in.

Jeff,
Working on that with better access for fuel tank, controls, mods or
repairs. The cockpit module is heavy and requires a lot of help to get
it in right and it is very time consuming to build for the novice, and
for the company to construct.
Keep the ideas coming.
Go to my website and download the heater. One inch tubes is all you
need really to keep the plane warm.

Here's an idea for the new venture, a four seater kit, that uses the
existing wings tail planes etc, so we can
swap wings from two to four seats if desired.
