I too wanted landing lights and bought Fred K's lenses to fair them into the wing tips with nav lights BUT have decided to fit landing lights into the outrigger fairing. The lights i have chosen are these from this vans site. http://www.rvplane.com/?categoryid=10000&dayid=1143 They are pricey but are FANTASTIC!

You can buy a NICE helmet mounted light for a lot of dollars. I purchased a CHEAP China unit for a fraction of the price, made a mount and it really does the job. It has high, medium, low, flash mode (high) and SOS (high). It also comes with a Lithium Ion battery pack (and case) and charger. Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/9600Lm-8X-CREE-XM-L-U2-LED-Head-Front-Bicycle-Lamp-Bike-Light-Headlamp-Headlight-/151262604417?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2337f42c81 I think I saw it as low as 61$. Worth considering for Europa.

I later swapped the bulb to an LED as the current drain is dramatically reduced and equally as bright. If you wanted to do the same an repeat MOD application would be needed - citing 13072 to save you work. Went to quite a lot of trouble to make sure it would not go into resonance as a result of excitation vibration from e.g. prop or engine out of balance forces. regards, Clive Now, G-CILF Mono (in build) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=439362#439362 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/gtagr_cov_71112_2_132.jpg ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 08:26:10 AM PST US From: Martin Tuck Subject: Re: Europa-List: Re: Mod 72 Reamer Thanks for the offers and contacts everyone.

Page 28M-13 of the manual says "The front flange of the bulkhead fits over the rear of the cockpit module" which indicates to me that the flange of XSF02A lies _forward_ of the wall of the baggage well. However, page 28M-14 says "Drill and cleco the bulkhead front flange onto the rear face of the cockpit module which sounds as if the flange of XSF02A lies _aft_ of the wall of the baggage well. The first option seems much more sensible and I think the second quote should read something like: "Drill and cleco the bulkhead front flange onto the front face of the rear wall of the cockpit module But, as usual, I feel the need for confirmation from others that I am reading the manual aright here. Is your aft baggage bulkhead flange (a) forward or (b) aft of the wall of the baggage well that is part of the cockpit module? in friendship Rowland | Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ... | http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk | Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson | pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/rowlandcarson ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 05:25:39 PM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: rear baggage shelf fitting From: "spcialeffects" Hi Rowland. I have a classic and am doing the extended baggage bay mod. After cutting the original short baggage bay off, the new one asks you to cut a section out of the lip which fits over the centre tunnel part of the cockpit module thus making the lip of the new style baggage bay fit over the cockpit module. Hope this makes sense.

I certainly did it as per your first method, the front flange of the bulkhead sitting in front of and bonding to the cockpit module's rear edge. It worked perfectly for me and the bulkhead sits nicely on the rear edge of the cockpit module. In fact, the mod 47 instructions quote; "The first job is to cut away the centre of the bulkhead front flange so that it matches the tunnel of the cockpit module". This is so that the bulkhead front edge fits nicely over the tunnel. If the front edge of the bulkhead was to go behind the cockpit module's rear edge you wouldn't need to do that trimming because the tunnel does not extend back behind the cockpit module.
