Subject: | hangar space in Corse for August |
I'm planing to visit Corse with my Europa during the second half of August and
would very much like to find a hangar space for 2-3 weeks in Bastia or somewhere
else.
Many years ago I met Jo Alfonsi with his beautiful Europa F-PAJO ("le petit Prince")
in Bastia;
does anybody have Jo's email so I can drop him a line?
Thanks a lot
Cheers
Klaus (OE-CKD)

Air Show 15th and 16th June (Fathers Day)Sent from Lapland!
Hi! All ,
No apologies for the PLUG!
The Wickenby Wings and Wheels Air show is on 15th and 16th June and
promises to be a very good event to attend with possible showings of
Vulcan, Red Bull, and BBMF. Throughout the weekend.
With it being on Father's day weekend what better excuse that a day with
"Big Boy's Toys" than Aeroplanes. There will be lots of side stalls and
attractions for kids and static aircraft ,4x4 off roading and vintage
vehicles and a Fun of the Forties two course Dinner Dance with live music
by Swingtime Jazz Band and bar in a Marquee. Tickets are available on line
:- www.wickenbyairfield.com/www
Aircrew Camping is permitted .

I think I have solved the problem. Despite having removed the brushes and cleaned
the slip ring once, I decided to do the whole operation again. What I found
was the inner ring brush had a very sticky spring and was sometimes getting stuck
at the mid-way point, thus making intermittent contact with the ring. (When
I removed the brushes the first time everything appeared fine so I missed the
problem.) It is possible the vibration caused by the landing run and stopping
the engine might have been enough to cause the brush to contact the inner
ring as all ground feathering tests were fine.
A short test flight showed the propeller and all light indications to be functioning
perfectly with not a hint of the FEATHER light illuminating!

I have really been moved by the messages of support from so many of my
Europa friends. My sincerest thanks to Rick, Bob, Trevor, Kevin, David,
Ron, Fergus et al.
However it has made me feel a bit of a fraud. I didn't intend to give
the impression I'm at deaths door. I still have a LAPL and have been
offered the chance to fly another aircraft out of Wadswick, when and if
G-KIMM sells.
My main problem is that I don't speak too well - I know that many manage
non radio, but additionally some of the physical demands mean that I'm
not enjoying my flying any more. We all know the one thing a Europa
should be is fun!
The result is that I've decided to try and sell my aircraft while I
still can.
Many thanks again,
All the Best, Paddy
Paddy Clarke
Europa G-KIMM
