The RV9A is group owned; the group leader is abroad at the moment (Until March) but I could get performance information from him when he returns. However, the aircraft is not yet fitted with its final cowlings, and therefore its present figures are somewhat degraded.

From: "rampil" max gross wt has little to do with engine output for experimental a/c and a lot to do with structural limits. Homebuilts do not need to certify to part 23 performance stds. No tip tanks for Europas without considerable re-engineering. Maybe some basic reading in aerodynamic structures and aerodynamics might be helpful for you -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=285206#285206 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:55:38 AM PST US From: Fred Klein Subject: Europa-List: Diesel Europa tri-gear MG? Dwight, With respect to the tri-gear MG portion of your quest, you might introduce yourself to Rob Neils who is based near Spokane; Rob flies one, I believe w/ a 914. His email is: RobNeils@Q.com Fred PS: I'm up on Orcas Island ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 06:50:49 PM PST US From: "Troy Maynor" Subject: Re: Europa-List: Lifting the Europa Folks, I just wanted to thank everyone that replied on the above subject. In the short term I used an engine hoist and nylon webbing lashed around the two upper members of the landing gear/engine mount frame that protrude through the firewall. I worked fine. Long term though I want one of the jacks like the one Bob Borger has on his build page. I think I can adapt it for my Classic. Thanks again for this great forum. Troy Plane finished, waiting better weather and a bit more stick time for first flight. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message europa-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Europa-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/europa-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/europa-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
