Hi There All,
I changed my tires on main gear in June 2011 and they are now completely
smooth and looks very thin after only 150 hours (maybe 150 TO and landing?)
on paved runway. What tire do you use (certified or not, Michelin, AirTrac,
...) and how long do you keep them?

Max,
I've used them all, from Michelins to cheapest. They all seem to last
about 150 hours. I now have 6 ply Air Tracs on board and they per form
well...

I see your problem. If they are not responding to your emails then that is n
ot a good sign. You could try and get a phone number for them. Avcomm is a l
imited company so Companies House should be able to tell you where they are l
ocated.

| Subject: | Re: Refilling a Europa by hand |
Hi all.
Many thanks for replies, Lots to choose from.
Personally I am not keen on jerry cans, maybe safer in transporting, but I like
plastic possibly cleaner inside. however I have seen many use jerry cans without
problems.
I always use a filter, I have a plastic one that fits quit tightly into the filler
hole, What I do notice in the filter after refilling is insects ie a small
flies.
I suppose one of these could block the jets, ???
So recommend using a filter,
They was a post saying filter as you refill you cann at the pumps, sounded a good
idea to me, till I remembered the flies.
Regards.
Alan

Hi All.
I remember a post and photo of a jig cam you placed under the main gear leg,
Like a Cam shaft drive, it lifted the wheel off the ground with easy.
Changing the wheel in the field.
Please post it again, as I have lost the photo.
Regards.
Alan

William, If you invest in a smartASS it may well save your
life and it also incidentally comes with a system warning
you if gear is not down when you reduce to approach speed,
so it may save your prop and engine too!

Well just goes to show, The carburettor jet life or death.
I don't know why she swallowed the fly, perhaps she'll die.
