    Dear David, Please count me in for 6N I would prefer more South than North from the weather viewpoint but will go with the majority.

    <<flap fiddling to get the stall below 45 KTS>> Has anyone tried that? What, for example, does 30 degrees or 35 degrees of flap confer in terms of any stall speed reduction? (Non-monowheel a/c only) Duncan Mcf. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Borger To: europa-list@matronics.com Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2010 2:18 AM Subject: Re: Europa-List: ELSA max speed solution. Bud, If you can get the stall speed down to the required 45 KTS, there is another solution to the max speed issue. You can "derate" the engine. State in your operating limitations that you are limited to 5800 RPM (or whatever max RPM is for the 912 or 912S) to, say, 5 or 10 minutes for takeoff and climb. After that, the operator is limited to a max of 5500 RPM or whatever is necessary to hold the speed down to 120 KTS max. This provides full power for takeoff and initial climb and provides your 120 KT cruise at 3 GPH. No need to resort to adding extra special drag to mess up the Europa's wonderful efficiency. So you build a tri-gear (or conventional gear) with Rotax 912 or 912S and a Warp Drive ground adjustable prop. Build it as light as possible for best useful load. License it for 1320 lbs max gross. Use your VGs and flap fiddling to get the stall below 45 KTS and derate the engine for whatever power provides you with 120 KT cruise. Just like that you have an Amateur Built Experimental that meets LSA requirements. Just my two bits. Fire away!

N12AY is a Classic Trigear placarded GW 1320, has completed most of it's test flights. After 4 months of testing, I will have a complete write up soon. Note, if your Europa has been registered above 1320 lbs, it does not qualify for an E- LSA ever. For those of you who have 1300 lb registrations on your flying Europa Classic, convert it to a fixed trigear if needed, add a fixed pitch prop, and if you started with a reasonable empty weight, add some vortex generators and do some tweaking and it will allow the plane to meet the criteria of 45 Kt stall, and 120 Kts at max continuous power. (Dirty up your wheel pants to keep the speed down if necessary). The XS wing is nearly 50 lbs heavier, slightly larger, and should also be able to meet the stall speed. Problem is the empty weight is a bit high on the XS unless you are a weight zealot. If you are a weight zealot, the XS should be eligible provided you have not already registered it's gross weight as over 1320. Darn those rules. By adding vortex generators (and I prefer adjusting the flap rig slightly down), the aircraft at 1320 lbs stalls at 45 Kts. The handling of the plane with the VGs is superb at low speed. 18 degrees deck angle, flaps up at 50 Kts indicated (Actual corrected speed is 47Kts.) Burble starts at 50, the nose starts wandering about 47, the heavy buffet begins at 45, break shortly afterwards. VGs run from the tip to 24 inches short of the wing root, and 7% chord seems to work well. Max continuous power setting speed runs with my old 914 power, wing speed kit and wheel pants only drops my top end 2-3 knots, as the Warp Drive prop is set at 29.5 degrees for 5200 static on full 38 inches power on the ground runs. You can imagine the rpm really drops when pulling it out of turbo. A 912 with 2.2 gearbox or 912S should be perfect for the LSA. The XS style pitot static is a problem, and I had to install cockpit static to get accurate readings. I've spent a lot of time flying speed runs, experimenting with pitot tubes etc., trying to calibrate my speed indications at these low speeds. The XS pitot is quite good down to about 65 Kts indicated (indicating 3 knots high) and is dead on above 80 (I am using a Winter A/S indicator and a Blue Mountain for indications). Speed runs are done with GPS and timed runs. I am now tweaking the flaps a tiny bit as it makes 45 knots quite controllable. Actually with a little tweak of the trailing edge, the plane would only need flaps for drag. More to follow. Weather and workload are slowing me down. Bud Yerly Custom Flight Creations

    Alasdair, Great. That makes the Tour de France trio + Bob Hitchcock/Bryan Alsop, who would like to join on Tuesday. I completed the Wellington's Battle Sites 2/52 ago and nearly died in the heatwave in central Spain - airbox temperature 37.4 at 2500ft. PVC tape peeled off as did part of the wing walk material, and I got to the point of wondering whether the plane or the pilot was going to be the first to succumb to heat stress! I will forward my email to Bryan so you will be 'au courant' with my thinking, but am open to persuasion, as long as it isn't Spain in a heatwave!

The previous owner didn't know anything of this prop control. I have a big switch you can toggle up and down to vary the prop pitch and so the RPM ,this works fine, but there are several push buttons, called CAL, UP, DOWN, RESET and ENTER switches. I can input figures from +90 down to -30 and then the digital display says something like BETA < 7.5. I'm trying to fly the aircraft but my engine is getting very hot and over RPM is possible, so the adjustment of the prop limit pitch is beyond limits I guess. Tried to find expertise around but not successfull. Is there anybody out there to help me understand how to operate this CAP NSI140 pitch controller and how to alter or set the correct pitch for a rotax914 Thank you very much for your help!!!

    Subject: Travel Tool Kit
    Hi Fellow Europaphiles, Has anyone come up with a list of must have tools, (and parts for that matter) to always have in the plane in case of trouble far from home? I know you need tools to get the cowling off and stuff like that. What I'm saying I guess is I don't need the entire set of hex socket wrenches, or the entire set of combination wrenches, I just want to pick out the specific sizes needed for a small kit that would be appropriate for someone with a monowheel with a Rotax 912. I could probably come up with a list but I'd appreciate any input for things that have gotten someone out of a jam in the past. I understand that some carry a spare tube for the monowheel tire. Where is the best place to get one, ACS? What about a wooden jacking block to fit a common floor jack to the LG frame? I don't won't to get carried away with a bunch of stuff that will overload me but just fishing for ideas really. Thanks in advance to all. Troy Maynor Monowheel Classic 120 37 hours

    From: "Troy Maynor" <wingnut54@charter.net>
    Hi Jeff P. I tried to reply to this post yesterday on a computer at work but hit a snag somehow with the forum. So here is the belated verses: Hi Jeff P. I am still trying to get the hang of it myself it seems at times. I only have 37 hours only in my Classic Monowheel so I am no expert. However, I would advise getting 6-10 hours in a tail dragger just prior to first flight, followed by some right seat time in a Monowheel if possible. If not, just think about looking far down the runway, getting approach speeds exactly as the book says. Do it early when it is calm and no crosswind. Get a picture of the correct deck angle in you perifereal(sp) vision but look way down the runway. When the tailwheel touches first the stick should by now be all the way back. Add or keep a little power on to arrest a too fast settling or a bounce if it occurs. Don't try to salvage a crappy landing set up. Go around and try again. Less shame in that than bouncing all over the runway. Use turf if at all possible when starting out. Expect the bird to leap off the ground and be ready with right rudder when you gently throttle up. More importantly,(for me anyway) was to expect it to want to climb very steeply when it leaves the ground. I actually have to put in a little nose down trim before take off and my weight and balance if right on. Hope this helps. Email me off list if you have any questions.

    Subject: Re: Jab 3300 FWF kit for sale
    Hi All, Yes, I've put up the Jabiru for sale after running some numbers and talking with a few Alphabet departments at the FAA. Since I've been building for 10 years as I've moved between counties I've missed the 'grandfathering' phase of allowing me to recertify the aircraft as an ELSA, which is no longer a valid category since January of this year. This means the aircraft has to be completed as an Experimental Amateur Built. No problem as it actually gives a wider audience in the future should I want to sell the plane. However, if I want to to fly the plane with a Sport Pilot License (and let my medical go) then the plane must perform to LSA specs. One can fly an Experimental or Standard category aircraft with a Sport License if the aircraft performs and was permitted/licensed that way originally. Hence my desire to to dumb down the Europa by 10+ knots on the cruise, and put it on a 50 lb diet to meet the GW and ensure adequate stall speed performance. In the XS case I'll also need to put in a fixed gear and I'm leaning towards a composite conventional gear. Translated, this means I need sell my heavier J3300 and look at the 912UL. Asking price on the still in the box Jabiru is 15K complete w/prop FWF. Cheers, Cleve Lee A198 Mono XS Airframe complete w/widening mod. Currently running wires.
