    Subject: Re: 100% stop
    Paul, I realize this answer is a bit tardy, but I have been all wrapped around the axle on other issues and never got around to an answer. I have a suggestion for your 100% throttle stops. They are called "spring plungers" in the McMaster-Carr on-line catalog. Here is a picture of a set: =46rom RIGHT to LEFT: Spring Plunger and Mounting Base, Spring Plunger partially screwed into the Mounting Base, Spring Plunger fully screwed into the Mounting Base, Mounting Base turned 180=BA showing the ball end of the Spring Plunger. The black thing is the Adjusting Wrench. I have not actually installed them yet, but I plan to give them a try once I get the W/B issues associated with the tri-gear conversion sorted out and things are running again. The plan is to establish the 100% point. Then installing one of these things one each side of the throttle plate so that the throttle hits the stop-ball at 100%. Then a good push should advance the throttle through the spring plunger balls and on to 115%. These things come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Go to http://www.McMaster.com/ and they are about 1/3 of the way down the main contents page under "Fabricating" -- "Clamping and Positioning" Good luck.

    Subject: Canadian Europas
    Robert McWilliam hair.mcw@sympatico.ca I have been approached by a prospective purchaser for information on Europas in Canada. Could I ask the owners locally to make contact with Robert to see what assistance can be given. At this stage I do not know where Robert lives and I appreciate just how large the Country is. Thanks in anticipation. Steve Pitt Chairman Europa Club

    Hi all, Just enquiring if anyone has built the glider wings for a monowheel "classic" ? Thinking of doing a glider licence with my son and maybe build the glider wings for ZK-TIM. Any information and views would be much appreciated. Cheers, Tim Tim Ward 12 Waiwetu Street Fendalton, Christchurch, 8052 New Zealand. ward.t@xtra.co.nz Ph 64 3 3515166 Mob 0210640221
