    Subject: Rotax 914
    Hi Mike, although I have the standard 912 in my Europa Mono MkI (OE-CKD, Kit Nr 132) with over 1.000 completely trouble free hours in over 13 years of operation, we have extensive experience with the 914 here in Austria. We use the 914 a lot in the "Dimona" Motor glider which is also used for towing gliders. From our experience I can tell you that the 914 is very reliable provided you treat the engine correctly and maintain it correctly! We mostly fly with MOGAS (Auto super 98 Oct), reduce the power as soon as practical and have a good cool down period before shutting down; service is very 50 hours with an oil & filter change! No unscheduled maintainance! I wouldn't hesitate to go for the 914...if I would have the cash;-) Please call, if you have any further questions! (+43 664 8103 825) All the best, Klaus

    Subject: Uploaded "The Europa" 32-minute video (circa 2000) to Youtube
    Hello all, Just a quick note to let you know that I found that intro video about the Europa that I had ordered in 2000. I feel it`s a great video, so I checked with Europa-Aircraft.com and they gave me the green light to upload it to Youtube. The first part can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EYAQsVWCMs The 2nd part is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W4foTmO6SY The 3rd and last part is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyfLJJ5TYBs (just about completed now). I presume that you have all seen this video quite often before; my targeted audience is my friends and colleagues that are so curious about my new Europa monowheel (Jim Stoveken's A059, being transformed from N202Y to C-GLOB). By the way, I had 2 full inches of extra length in my garage for A059 on its trailer. So, with the spinner in place, we are talking of 19'6" on the trailer. Best regards, Luc
