| Subject: | Italian trip 1-9 July |
I have several interested parties for the Italian trip and most are bringing
their wives/girl friends with them, so the trip will emphasize the touristic
delights of Italy rather than aiming to get in the maximum possible mileage
each day. If anyone else is interested please contact me in the next 24 hrs
before I make final arrangements.

| Subject: | Heat shields - carbs |
After installing the Skydrive carb heat kit, I had to cut the back of my former
standard Rotax fuel/heat shield cups to cope with the extra lenght.
As their function is now only partial (half of the carb bowls unprotected), I purchased
the fuel recuperation plates that normally come with the standard Rotax
airbox, thinking I could adapt these (912S installation).
I am anyway concerned about how this could be done in a proper way.
Has someone already solved this?
Thanks in advance.

Jean-Paul,
Attached are five photos of my carb heats shields (912 ULS), which I
hope will say more than a thousand words.
The shield is made of thin stainless steel plate. The support is one
continous strip cut from a stainless steel plate, riveted to the shield.
The zig-zag shape makes the support sufficiently stiff against
vibrations.
You will see that the aft, lower fixation of the shield support is the
screw clamp that holds the exhaust temp thermocouple in place, while the
forward, upper fixation is a standard stainless steel screw hose clamp.
Both are tightened "just so" - no point tightening hard. If you do not
have these thermocouples installed, use hose clamps.
Good luck.
Regards,
Svein

I have the carb heat system also - I made my own shields after cutting out the
stock ones and losing the drainage effect - took a lot of time cutting and fitting
- but does provide a heat shield and complete coverage of the carb for leaks
- ran a tube down the back for dainage of fuel if it should leak - can send
pictures if you wish -

Bonjour Jean-Paul
You can use the fuel recuperation plates that normally come with the
standard Rotax airbox in combination with the Skydrive carb heat kit, I did
it and it works. Tomorrow I'll go to the workshop and take some pictures.
More information to come tomorrow evening.
Meilleures salutations

| Subject: | Wickenby Wings and Wheels this Saturday and Sunday. |
Hi! Everyone.
I am really hoping that the Europa fraternity will put in a good turnout for
the East Midlands Region Wickenby Wings and Wheels. We have two great days
scheduled and an excellent Marquee event on Saturday Evening with a Forties
theme Live Band from Waddington . We have our very own male singer who
demonstrated his talent on a recent club evening but on the 18th he may be
otherwise occupied since he's half of our new duo responsible for moving the
club restaurant and club facility into more charismatic and up market times
so he will probably be too busy for further demonstrations !
I intend having my double "knocker" caravan and awning there in which we
once slept 16 students so just bring your sleeping bags and it should be
cosy, oh! also ear plugs because one or two whose names are not for
publication are pretty good at "rasping " the night away on a belly full of
beer ! Three or four of us will be doing Kids flight experiences and Flights
for Life trips.
I say East Midlands Region because whilst I acknowledge we are a little
NORTH of Watford we still hope to catch the eye of those South of Watford .
I just did Stauning (EKVJ) on Friday Direct and back Saturday Direct
Wickenby and the previous weekend my brother rode jump seat with me to Eslov
Near Malmo and back via Texel so Wickenby should be a push over for you lot,
come on now........you must know we aren't YORKIES !
Regards
Bob Harrison.G-PTAG

Gary, I'm sure I and others would be interested to see any pics you can post
re your fuel heat shields. I don't like the thought of 100LL or mogas
dripping down onto that silencer(muffler?) and will fit suitable protection
when time allows.
