Couldn't agree more with all of you.
I have yet to find a better handling, or more quiet, enjoyable flying
aircraft built anywhere, that gets 35-40 mpg at 120 Knots... Stock, out
of the box.
And it got better with age.
The new fast build takes the drudgery out of the Classic's endless
glassing and with careful construction needs less filler.
The high top/wide body mod is much more comfortable but all that is a
bit of a weight penalty the Classic did not have...
350 hours on the Rotax in my modified Classic and it still purrs.
Keep it simple and light with good access for maintenance, and it is a
joy.

20 years - and looking so young!! Europa is up there among the
sleekest,
best-looking aircraft, with flying qualities unmatched. It is hard to
imagine that the first Europa was already 10 years old when I was
fitting
the cockpit module into the lower fuselage half (Oh, all those good
memories from the building process ..........)
I join all in congratulating - and thanking ever so much - Ivan, Andy,
Neville and the other GOOD members of the team - past and present -
that
made Europa to what it is today. I built my plane, but you created
it.
Regards,
Svein
