Clive,
Care to share the critical dimensions? i.e. the centre-to-centre distances between
the three pivots; assuming the standard shorter plastic ball ends have been
used?
Rgds.,
Duncan McF.

Gents, in case its useful a pic of the gas strut mechanism installed on kit 121
(which i now own and is registered as G-YETI). I am also in receipt of recent
correspondence from Andy Draper who accepts this as 'Trivial' on the basis that
the function of the strut is unchanged by this MOD. Regards, Clive

Duncan, certainly:
Centres between upper/door attachment end and hinge is 240mm
Centres between lower/fuselage arm attachment end and hinge is 227mm
Lower arm attachment and the rod end of the gas strut share the same location
Other/thicker end of the gas strut is placed 38mm from the hinge centre on the
door arm
Do bear in mind that the strut mechanisms are 'handed' per side
Actually (and complete credit should go to Gerry for this) i have a pattern/mockup
mechanism as image below. If the Europa Club would like to put it on their
'inventory' of useful stuff/tools, i would be happy to donate it.
In the first instance though i will be posting it to Roger Lloyd - who go there
first!
Hope it helps
Clive
