Question to Dutch owners of a Europa.
All Europas in the Dutch register seem to have had their type changed a
while ago into "Europa AL ....".
I would like to know what the "AL" means if anything. "Avion **Lgre"?
Thanks.

Subject: | Re: One wing Low |
Hi all.
I have a similar problem, my left wing want to drop , have to hold stick to the
right, then hold on rudder to keep ball in centre.
Fly,s much better two up just a tiny bit of stick right.
I like the idea of an adjustable aileron trim tab, but I rather go along and buy
something off the shelf and a tube of Araldite, just don't have the time to
spare,
Has anyone made up a radio controlled stick on trim tab, they must be some model
makes out there,
Regards.
Alan

Hi Graham.
Some one mention adjustable, I find a lot of difference flying one up.
It surprised me as to the amount of difference between flying one up and two up.
so it would be nice to have something you can adjust from the cockpit.

Subject: | What material is the thin yellow foam? |
Does anyone know what that thin (1/8"?) yellowish foam used
extensively on the aircraft? Searching through the archive, there was
a mention of it being PVC foam. Aircraftspruce and Wicks do not seem
to have anything that looks similar, The only 1/8" foam I could find
was Divinycell PVC foam, which is blue and has a density of 3 lb/ft3.

Maybe a simple spring adjustment in the cabin?

I use a bungy cord cord from the stick to the centre tunnel. Adjustment
is by a yacht rope cleat.
Low cost, simple to install and works a treat.

If I understand the physics correctly..
For a lateral mass imbalance (the equivalent of) a sideways force on the
stick that is proportional to g-force is in principle the only correct
compensation.
A certain sideways force is only good at one g-force.
A certain aerodynamic correction is only good at one g-force and one
airspeed.
The bungy cord (second best of these) looks good to me.
