| Subject: | Re: Sideways movement in Tri Gear nose wheel arm. |
Hi All.
Phoned Europa, its Loctite 638 used.
However so far I have tightened the two bolts on the leg strut and the movement
is now down to about 1/4" where the tyre meets the ground.
Will take spats off etc, and have a look, as now the 1/4"play could be on a small
amount in the bearings or horizontal and vertical Axials
Will have to order some 638.
Alan

Hi .
A member completed his IMC rating on a Europa, I am still not sure if this possible,
and not going to post on it,
However I received an 869 page document from the CAA,
There were so many vague points it was a mine field, all I can say is the test
has to be carried out on a certified aeroplane that is fully duel controlled and
a swing over control column is not acceptable.
It listed the required instruments and avionic, but it did not say about certified
instrument or avionics, it did say only two types of GPS where acceptable.
I made several phone calls and many e-mails at the time, but still could not get
a definite answers to my question, every question lead to another factor, so
gave up in the end.

Alan,
I can't believe that you are harping on abut this again after the last episode
where you were quite definitely pointed in the right direction to read all the
relevant rules regarding training for and doing the test on a Permit to Fly aircraft.
IT IS PERMITTED. It has been permitted relatively quite recently, I can't
remember exactly when, but a couple of years if my memory serves me correcty.
If some body new dragged up an old resolved subject it is a bit acceptable, but
when the same person drags up a subject again, just because they can't accept
the answers they got, I find this totally unacceptable.

I think we need a bit of patience on this one. The current activity with
the LAA and UK CAA involves a trial to determine the detailed procedures and
policies. When this trial is complete, and the CAA have approved
everything, the LAA will issue a Technical Leaflet which will explain, in
detail, how to get your aircraft approved for night/IFR operations.
It has taken 6 years of studies and negotiations to get this far but we are
nearly there!

Brian Davies

Get the 869 page document's and don,t be so rude , I remember you rude comments
last time, there is no need to post rude comments, Perhaps you can find out if
the instruments and avionics have to be certified, that would be useful.

David
It is not all as you think, to be exact there a many variables involved in what
you can and can't do, involved in adding ratings to your licence.
And I am not posting on this again.
However the question was about certified instruments and avionics, and as the instruments
and avionics are listed for an IMC rating plus they two type of gps
were approved for training in the 869 pages I have read.

Hi Brian. Well I for one can't wait for your technical letter out lining what is
acceptable or required as I am putting off buying my panel at the moment so
