Count me in!
Just one small problem- need to finish my plane first. I do however feel it might
not take as long as getting all the permits..

Hi Group
Anyone have any idea why both of my FL-16 Flap Hinge Arms have a hole on the square
end?:

| Subject: | Foot well got burned! |
Hi Group
I accidentally burned my starboard foot-well!
I replaced my lanterns alkaline battery (EverReady) ~ Christmas 2010. It hasn't
seen any use since then.
I sit down in front of my Europa XS Mono to study the undercarriage mounting frame,
need some light. No problem, I grab my lantern that I always store with the
lens up (in case it is left on), turn it on and use it for 5 or so minutes.
I turn it off and rest it on my starboard foot-well, again with the lens up.
After about 10 minutes I pick it up, turn it on to use it again and see what I
think is water on my foot-well, it's turning the Phenolic resin black!
I'm not sure just what leaked out of the battery, but it was water clear and had
the viscosity of 3 in 1 oil.
I was able to get off perhaps 1/2 of the damage, I tried water, alcohol and acetone
with scotchbright.
Anyway the resin sure did react quick to whatever it was that leaked out.:

Hi Ron,
Not the right place for a hole to connect to the flap cross tube. Nope, no idea
why that hole is there. If it were me, I'd just ignore it. You are free to
do as you will.

Ron...reading on p.9 of chap. 28M:
> Step 14
> Attach the hinge arms FL16 to the brackets FL18 then swing them up to engage
between the two pairs of lugs that are welded to the cross-tube, rotating the
tube so that the lugs and the hinge arms are in line. Clamp the lugs and hinge
arms together then, using the two small diameter holes in each lug as a centre,
drill right through with a 4.8 mm drill. Insert an AN3-5A bolt in each hole
and reposition the clamp if necessary before drilling the second hole then, placing
on an AN960-10L washer, tighten each bolt up with an MS21042-3 nut and
remove the clamps. The flaps will now extend and retract together and only require
linking to the landing gear retraction mechanism.
Manual indicates you should have 2 small holes...not 1...what size is your hole?
I don't recall if my FL 16s had one or two holes...

OOPS...misread the manual...the "two small holes" are in the lugs, not in the FL
16s...in truth, I don't recall my FL 16s having ANY holes...

| Subject: | Europa Ownres website |
I am so elegantly infuriated to take the time to write my
frustrations with the asinine subject website. Every time I try to get what
I paid for, I am frustrated by the kindergarten precautions to entry. I had
to fill out my name and address FIVE times to get to where I could email to
acquire a new password. I have more than one address and cannot keep a list
of all the myriad passwords and names and addresses these children require -
when in fact they had my name and address on application - PLUS a request to
remember them for future application - which they DID NOT.
What is the problem? Cannot they tell who's emailing them? Why
are they unable to acknowledge receipt of one email? They got the money -
it's time to belly up to the bar.

Nigel,
I too have specialized tool for setting these bearings, but I found your
price a bit high for a lowly hammer, that's why we have a highly refined
tool called a High Inertia Fine Adjustment Tool (HIFAT) for only 150.
For others I have a less expensive Government Surplus High Acceleration
Mass Mechanical Error Reducer for those fine adjustments at only 56.
Regards,
Bud

Hi Roland,
The ''eyeball'' ball socket is held captive by a ring [ collar ], if
the ring has moved outboard, it will allow the eyeball to swivel too
far, that is why the pin will jam in the hole.
Find a steel tube that just clears the eyeball, but is smaller than
the socket housing.
Align the eyeball hole parallel to the flap tube.
Get someone to hold a piece of wood against their leg and bear against
the port side of the flap tube, place the steel tube onto the collar and
strike the tube with a hammer.
When the ring is engaged deeper, the eyeball will only swivel a very
small amount.
You must of course use a special Aircraft Hammer, I have these for
sale at only =C2=A3120 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
I have my Europa stored in the trailer and rig it any time
I=C3=A2=C2=C2=99m flying. Newly I
have the problem, that the starboard flap pin doesn=C3=A2=C2=C2=99t
slide in easy as was
always the case before (for two years at any temperature). It feels like
it
cants and then after wiggling the wing up and down, forth and back it
suddenly
skips in completely. I always grease those connections very well and
also the
ring inside the flap operation tube, that catches the pin, is movable as
on the
other side.
Flap operation when rigged is normal.
Has anyone of you experienced something similar? Where do I have to
focus on?
Roland
