    Subject: Aluminium long range tank for sale
    I am relaying this message from Gavin Stewart. If you are interested, please contact him off forum at: gavinstewart@talktalk.net Dear Remi, I have a very nice metal long range tank sitting in my garage. It is from my Classic which was written off following an engine failure forced landing. I am very happy to pass it on, together with some other bits. I am near Ipswich, UK. Please copy this onto the Europa Digest List if you are not interested but think it may interest others. I don't know how to access the Digest. Regards, Gavin Stewart

    David, The Arplast spinner blends in with the cowl and looks very nice on my Europa. Roger G-BXTD ----- Original Message ----- From: David Steade To: europa-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2008 4:31 PM Subject: Europa-List: Spinner for Arplast PV50 Hi All I'm thinking of fitting an Arplast PV50 propeller to my XS trigear. Does anyone know if the standard factory 10 inch spinner will fit with this propeller or would it be best to use the standard Arplast spinner which is only about 9 1/2 inches in diameter? Any advice would be appreciated. Regards David Steade

    Subject: finally and at last
    Well folks its finally happened. After six years of hard labour today at 11.20 G-c.e.r.i. at Caenarfon airport north wales UK. piloted by an officer and a gentleman, "Jeff Leeming" took off into that great blue yonder. Climbed to 4000ft carried out a stall. The left wing dropped quite sharply, but was easily controlled with with right rudder and gentle pull back on the stick. We'll have to fit stall strips during the testing period. To my amazement every thing worked perfectly!!!! Total time for the flight was 25 minutes. When we will get the full test complete due to the weather is any ones guess. The forecast for the next few weeks does not look too good. ( i blame santa ) But at least we're getting there. :-) I suppose at this juncture its time to thank a few people. Firstly it has to be my wife and two daughters, as I built c.e.r.i. on my own they gave me a lot of help, turning the wings / fitting the CM / and putting on the top etc. and spending a lot of money!!. Mind you for some unknown reason I couldn't get them to do any filling and sanding !!! The list could be quite long, but I'll keep it brief. Jeff Leeming and Arther Orchard (Mona flying club) John and Roger (Europa 04) Andy Draper and Nev Aires (formally Europa) Murray Flint (paint job) All at the LAA. And last but not least, all you lovely people on the Forum, without the help I received from you , this aircraft would never have flown. I've attached a pic of R.I.and Jeff in the hangar. Danny G-c.e.r.i 912s tri gear P.s. Sorry Dave (Moore) but the Europa G**N does exist :-)
