Hi Guys. Tomorrows weather looks reasonable in the UK. I am thinking of flying down to Holmbeck Farm, Freebie in Flyer magazine. 500m. grass strip. No cafe on site but a good pub for lunch just a mile walk in the local village. I am planning to be there for around noon and look forward to seeing anyone else who fancies the trip. http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~dartdirx/holmbeck_farm_airfield.html I have spoken to the owner. PPR not essential but please check on website prior to arrival and if using 29, make a short dogleg on approach so as to miss the farm where there are horses stabled. Make blind calls on Safetycom frequency.

A couple of questions though from anyone who has already done this - or similar. 1) does the Rotax generator generate enough power to handle the additional power consumption of the EFIS and servos or would I need to add more power generation via a generator presumably mounted to the vacuum pump pad? 2) the servo installation instructions say" Wire Sizing: While it is beyond the scope of this installation guide to advise on specific types of wiring for a particular aircraft, choice of wiring should be sized to 1) minimize voltage drop over the length of the particular wiring run, and 2) conduct the amount of current required by the subsystem without the wiring becoming warm to the touch." Any ideas how to figure this out?

Any ideas how to figure this out?" Bob from Aeroelectric has a 27 meg .pdf of advisory circular 43.13: http://www.aeroelectric.com/Reference_Docs/Advisory_Circulars/ If you don't already have a copy, you can download and there are tables for continuous and intermittent use wire size tables. They also specify if wires are in a tight bundle or if in free air. Also worth a download of Europas build manual CBM25 ,Ele4ctrical System: http://www.europa-aircraft.com/upload/CBM%20-%2025%20-%20ELECTRICAL%20SYSTEM.pdf Ron Parigoris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message europa-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Europa-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/europa-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/europa-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
