No sign of corrosion at all. On the contrary, clean alloy stubs and radiator. I also cut the hoses for closer inspections. Same result: clean. Another 912S owner in our hanger did swap from Evans to water without cleaning the system from water. That was not smart. The mixture turn to a jelly like condition. Nev, do you know if this 912S has run on Evans all the time or if it has been =9Cconverted=9D from 50/50 ?

Can you let me have his contact details? Kindest Regards Ivan -----Original Message----- From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of phillik747 Sent: 05 April 2012 17:21 Subject: Europa-List: New Europa owner Just wanted to stop by and say I have joined the ranks of Europa owners and recently purchased an Europa kit that has been in the building process form around 2000. It was tucked away in a hanger in FL. I hope to get her flying in a couple of years. Right now she is a monowheel but I will be turning her into a tri-gear soon. I already have the tri-gear kit minus a few parts (MG02, main gear sockets, and some nose gear fork components). I'll be also looking for a 912USL soon. A little of my background, I'm Kim Prout's nephew and helped him build N111EU back in '96. Flew to Oshkosh and meet Ivan Shaw there where he picked up the some of the first new tail wheels for conversions. I have spent many hours in 111EU and fell in love with her. It was amazing and a huge learning experience to watch my Uncle and Grandpa come up with ideas while building 111EU. I'm an ERAU graduate that flew in the Navy for a few years and now hopes to return to the air soon.
