    Bud, I'm pleased to report that the tow bar I got from you works great. Especially appreciated by my 79 year old hangarmate, who can now move my plane to get his Jodel out. It's almost flyable here now, although this morning a friend indicated that he could not get beyond the hangar fence as someone had snapped a key in the frozen lock.

    Subject: Windscreen Demister
    Hi Europaphiles, Has anyone felt the need for a demisting system in their Europa? If so, under what conditions? Has anyone who has devised a cabin heating system included demisting as part of this? Have you ever used it in anger? I am considering my cabin heating system from the hot air at the back of the radiator, and wondering if I should include any demisting while on the job - don't want to have to come back later to do it. Regards Graham Higgins, #261 in Oz

    Hi Graham, I blow cold air onto my windscreen and it does a nice job of defrosting. If you take a took at http://www.europa.net.nz/363/index.html under June 2002 you can see the vents I made. December 2003 shows the manifold for the ducts on the instrument panel. You can see the SS heat box on the fire wall under January 2004. The hose lay out can be seen under Friday 20th on February 2004. If you click on the sidebar under flying experiences you will find a link on how I did my cockpit heat. Cheers, Paul

    Hi! Graham, Very occasionally on start up without the knee vents open and "TWO UP" I have had misting up and once at 10,000ft without my hot air pick up switched on when I had the screen begin to freeze over also "two up". However my being in the UK and perhaps you being in OZ you my have different considerations. Regards Bob Harrison.

    Subject: Re: Windscreen Demister
    Graham, My website has a view of the method I use for my customers heaters. Like most systems off the coolers, it varies the temp with the engine, outside air and velocity. Normally very good at 120 kias at 30 degrees F or above. As for demisting, most avionics put off enough heat that a small fan blowing air from the passenger well and exiting through a hole above the instruments (on top of the panel, in front of the pilot) works well for our modest temps here in the SE US. Jerry Hope said it best, "might as well cool the instruments and keep the windscreen clear!" He used a small computer cooling fan of 12 volts sucking air from the curved portion on the passenger side behind his radios and it blows across his stack, and it exits out the top quite well.

    Subject: Exhaust Lagging
    Hey All, Is it ok to lag, or wrap some kind of heat shield around part or all of the exhaust pipes? Mine is a classic FWF with stainless steel pipes. I wanted to keep a few areas cooler, like near the carbs, and a few other places. I have read that regular steel pipes can rust away undetected under insulation. What do I need to ask for specifically, maybe out of ACS or Summit racing. What have others done Troy Maynor
