I think the Europa site is very useful, and that Matt Dralle is working hard to
keep it up and runing. I'd like to contribute, and pay by credit card. But
having been subject to three mega-scams on my card in the last 7 years, one for
$50,000, I am very wary about making credit card payments online, except through
the large outlets, where there are safeguards in place. It is all about
having one's details somewhere on line, where hackers can get in.
Of course, I should be addressing this concern direct to Matt Dralle, but every
message I have sent to him these last 8 years or so (eg technical stuff about
receiving the list to an email address) has had zero response. So probably there
would be zero response here.
So, does anyone have any ideas about how secure is a credit card payment on the
listed site?
Best to all from Kenya

Hi Richard,
Paypal is the industry std, and as an intermediary totally obfuscates your
card information from the vendor - and they are owned by Ebay. FWIW I use
it regularly without issue, allowing me to not worry about the legitimacy
of any of the on-line vendors, no matter how small or how unkown.
Cheers,
Pete

I used the RAY ALLEN G205 STICK GRIP for the P1 side and a single ptt button on
the P2 side
Part # 11-09920 on my dog legged stick.
Re brake control: I have been using it nearly a year now and haven't had any issues
with controlling both, after all one hand on the stick is enough. And you
dont need the brake until you are are rolling and have landed.
My C42 had a bike type brake but you have to be able to latch it on and on mine
it was always needing adjustment.

| Subject: | Always a slight coolant leak after flight |
While I am sorting odd bits and bobs; since build I have had a slight coolant leak
when the engine cools. I guess the water stops being pumped, the heads are
hot and the pressure builds in the pipe from top bottle to port side of radiator
and that joint weeps. Why doesnt it flow to the expansion bottle though? I
have a silicon down pipe and good clamp but it still does it. Maybe I need a
constant torque type clamp. Tempted to put the original black pipe back on.

Dear Richard et al,
One of the reasons I have chosen to run all of the Matronics servers locally is
so that I can have a much higher level of confidence in the security of the overall
system as well as the security of the Contributions received. You can
feel confident that your private card information is handled with the upmost in
confidentiality. As Pete pointed out, PayPal is also another industry accepted
standard that is available for making a List Contribution. Either method
is perfectly acceptable.
Over the years I have always tried to answer all email and questions that I have
received that were expecting a response. I'm not sure why I haven't received
your direct messages in the past, Richard. Perhaps the Barracuda Spam filter
was blocking them for some reason. To that end, I have added an exception for
your email address specifically, Richard, so your email shouldn't be blocked
under any circumstances going forward.
Best regards,
Matt Dralle

| Subject: | Oil in Turbo on 914 |
Looking for some advice. My 914 hasn't been run for about 18 months. Oil has
been collecting in the bottom of the turbo. I have the hose between the
turbo and intercooler disconnected and I can suck up oil with paper towels
in that opening. After about 2 months, the oil leaks back in. Any
suggestions on what could be causing this? And can I run the engine with the
turbo to intercooler to intake disconnected? I'm assuming it would just run
like a 912 but not sure. I would only do that for testing.
Thanks,
Brad

This is often the case if you don't run the engine. The turbo is at a
low position, there is a valve in the oil return line but even a tiny
leak in that valve will allow the oil slowly to collect in the turbo.
Best is to run the engine regularly, at least once a month. Not only for
this turbo problem, but also for the rest of the engine.
You can also clean/replace the oil return valve. Ideally it should not
leak oil, but then again, 18 months is a very long time.

Why would you do that? Get out as much oil as you can with a piece of
transparent hose (stick it in the turbo, close the other end with your
finger, lift it out, take your finger off and the oil runs out of the
hose, repeat this until no oil can be caught anymore). Whatever is left
will then be burned in the cylinders.
Running the turbo without the hose will create a mess and the turbo
might(will?) overspeed. The TCU won't see any pressure in the intake so
it keeps the wastegate firmly closed, so the turbo will get the full
exhaust pressure, and without back pressure on the intake side, it will
spool up very fast, without anything limiting it. I wouldn't dare to
try, not even at idle. The engine is not ment to be run like that.
