    Subject: Naca Vents
    A few weeks back someone was asking for the factory instructions for fitting the NACA ventilators. I looked at the time but didn't find my instructions where I thought they should be. However, looking for something else I have just come across them! The lower front corner of the ventilator should be on the Fuselage join line . The back vertical edge should be 6.25 ins/160mm in front of the front edge of the door. Could scan complete instructions to anyone still needing them> Regards, David Joyce, G-XSDJ

    Subject: Re: touring in Greece
    Glenn, It was probably me. I am still awaiting a reply from Greek CAA to a letter specially translated into Greek and sent a month ago. Getting permission to overfly foreign countries for round the world fliers is immensely difficult to do oneself, especially it seems when you get past Italy! Most of the fliers seem to resort to agents who will fix you permission for 200 a country (and the generally compulsory handling agents etc at extra cost) when I last asked. These companies presumably have standing arrangements with somebody in each country who takes part of the cash. I had planned my own trip to Australia (which unfortunately went on permanent hold when my son developed Motor Neurone Disease) but had got almost to the point of deciding that the hastle of trying to arrange permission oneself made it not worth going, and had been thinking about whether I really wanted to shell out several hundred pounds for every country on the way! I don't know whether his gyro is certified, but if so that could well make it a bit easier. The last time I considered flying to Russia, I got the answer that it was only allowed if you carried a Russian navigator in the plane, so if they haven't changed their tune that is going to provide an extra challenge for him. Incidentally he appears to have got across Greece alright and to be about to land in Alexandria. Regards, David Joyce ----- Original Message ----- > Recently someone here in the group was asking about touring in Greece? I see a brave compatriot is _very_ shortly to transit that country by gyro', on his way, um, Around. Perhaps he could be contacted by email in due course for the skinny on his experiences there, by anyone planning to visit Greece in a Permit aircraft. One would expect his flying machine to attract the natives, perhaps the folks wearing hats.

    So are mine, I just need to find baggier shorts for the air to make a circuit around my crotch and down the other leg. Just couldn't bring myself to mess with my pretty joint line. I still haven't put in my ultimate air vents. It's getting hot in Florida and I just need time to get around to it.

    Subject: Europa Kit half done
    Hi I am in Australia and know of a Europa Mono Wheel that is as per the photo on the web site and is for sale at a reasonable price . I have listed the site below. Thanks Martin Boyle Reference: [001661-AEROCOF661] Hi Martin Thanks for your enquiry. We have quite a lot of info on the web regarding the project. Advertisment in our club E-magazine http://www.espinner.net/espinner_7/europa_project.htm Builders Details, builders log, Photos. http://www.geol.utas.edu.au/europa/ If you want any further technical information, please refer to Andrew Richardson, email Andrew.Richardson@polytechnic.tas.edu.au. The aircraft has been built rigorously and is in good condition. Basically it requires a finishing off job of engine, instruments, internal fittings and paint. It owes the club and syndicate many tens of thousands of dollars but we are serious about wanting to sell this project and will consider reasonable offers even though less than the price that was paid for the kit, and even not getting anything for the work that has been done. Please contact myself or Andrew if you wish to make an offer. Regards Graeme Martin President Aero Club of Southern Tasmania 03 62237615, 0414 635 047.
