Hi Alasdair,
Sorry I will not be able to attend, as I am organizing a Fly-In here in Gap
the very same Saturday. This date was retained a long time ago, long before
the Popham Europa Fly-In was announced. I will miss it. Anyway I am planning
to attend the LAA rally in September.
Regards

Hi Fred, Kevin, Bob and Max,
Thank you all for your kind words, worth all the more coming from people

Fred, I've answered your questions below.

Not as much as we used to Fred. There's not a lot of call for it at the
moment, though I did startle the neighbours with a hearty "Yeeeee Ha"
when it popped out of the mould without sticking.

850mm or about 33.5 of Her Majesty's finest inches into the "Joggle"
(should be the same as an XS). The real trick was making a short and
dumpy cowl look long and sleek.

Max, The cowling is only part of a programme of extensive "face-lift"
mods for the Europa, so until I have finished mine and tested it and had
it approved, I do not really want to sell on copies. I would however be
happy to give any hints or tips on how to create "plugs" and moulds to
allow you to create your own in a typical home environment (I.e. without
full composite factory facilities). If interested, contact me off-list.

So, now I am happy again.
I solved all the problems posted above.
The engine runs good and I will leave the water tubes to the carb heaters open
all the time.
At lower rpm ( 4500-4800 ) there is still to much vibration for my taste but since
I did not fly any other Europa I can not tell if this is normal or not.
The propeller is set to zero by the factory but occasionally I want to let it balance
dynamically.
Thank you all very much for your great support.
Happy flying ( when weather gets better finally)

Hi Juergen
Glad you are sorted.
Mark Burton sells a very good dynamic prop balancer. I have one of his
early models.

Hi Pete,
Mark's site states that the very nice looking PB-3 balancer is not
available for sale. Would you have any info as to when Mark will start
selling it?
Many thanks,

Hi Guys,
Mark has been selling the PB3 for a year or so - I purchased one last May
(2011).
Very good it is too - confirmed that my Woodcomp prop didn't need balancing
!!!
Expensive reassurance but then you can't put a price on peace of mind.
Cheers,

Juergen,
I had my prop balanced in Bonn Hangelar and it is turbine smooth now.
