Take you time, hope that in the end all works out for you! When you are up to it, could you please let us know what happened? -------- Marcel Zwakenberg XS TG || 912ULS || PH-SBR Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=459464#459464 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 04:18:40 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: Report: Nye grease nose-wheel fork friction From: "carlp101" So. Regarding grease for the nose wheel. On thread on this forum called "Damping grease" I said: I've tried the PG-44A [damping grease] from Newgate Simms. It's great. I put in on the upper face of the friction plate. Now I can easily steer my plane easily and I don't get the nose-wheel shimmy when landing. I'd thoroughly recommend it. 50g 22.50 + VAT Newgate Simms Limited Broughton Mills Road Bretton, Chester CH4 0BY United Kingdom Tel: +44(0)1244 660771 Email: shop(at)newgatesimms.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=459465#459465 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 04:34:32 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: Did Anybody see thius on BBC From: "Roland" All the best also from me and sorry for my post above - it was inadequate and not funny.

Of course the comedy is now overshadowed by what appears to be the loss of the plane. That's very sad, and I feel for the pilot/owner. There is still the over-stretched voice at the back of my head that is saying it 'might?' be fixable. I think of Thomas Scherer who has done it, and probably Bud, and other names here? Have a great day, Greg Fuchs -----Original Message----- From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Roland Sent: Friday, August 12, 2016 4:34 AM Subject: Europa-List: Re: Did Anybody see thius on BBC All the best also from me and sorry for my post above - it was inadequate and not funny.
