Hello Remi,
here are the coordinates again:
allekirjoitus *N611743 E0234557.
*Tampere (which is the largest inland town in the Northern countries) is
just 25 km north from us.
Tampere Airport EFTP is 20 km north-west from us.
About pwr-lines: we took away one 20 kV line (500 m), one 380 V line
(690 m) and one telephone line.
That meant a lot of digging...
Cheers,
Raimo

With Monowheel, its even more difficult to hang on lines!
I showed this film also to the energy company - no worries about the
line security - they can withstand without breaking!
EFRT 03/21 was not a risk for security of The Republic of Finland!

(If you have read my post, you know that today the landings are only to
12/30, which is parallel to the line. Got it?!)

Raimo, Maybe we should fit monos with a little hook so that we can also
use the power cables as arrester wires if the strip is covered in cows!

| Subject: | Fractured Engine Mount Bolts |
Dear All,
I am writing to notify a serious failure on my Europa G-BXLK (classic, mono 912ul).
During ground runs to investigate cold weather starting problems, excessive engine
movement was noticed.
Closer examination revealed two fractured M10 bolts holding the MT01 frame to engine
casing.
I dont want to enter into discussion on the list but will be forwarding full details
to the LAA this week for investigation.
If anybody has a classic MT01 engine mount available then please contact me off
list.
Happy New Year & best regards,
Roger

David,
doctors are innovative and pilot-doctors are the best of all!
I have "always" dreamed about to pull signs.
Actually that happened during my weddings 2000.
It was our C172 OH-CVK.
This photo have been taken 2002.
That same little hook could tow the sign and be the brake hook when
landing as you suggested.
What you think about that with Europa (please do not bother to ask LAA)?
Are you pretty sure its safe when touching the ground (I mean if you
are same time connected to the 110 kV) ?!
OK, I do understand the cable will be nonconductive material like nylon.
Should we consult with U.S Navy?
Maybe we will try it together first?
PS: that hook must be larger than "a little hook", those 110.000 V steel
cables here are around 100 mm = 4".
Cheers,
Raimo

Fred,
about Kim Prout, story is fantastic. This is a short version:
I happen to meet a son of his old friend here in Finland.
He reported Kim is going to fly to Sweden, to his friend in Gotland
island. That man is the privat owner of the huge former military
airfield there.
I contacted Kim, and so it happened, that we, Kim and me, flew together
from Gotland to Finland to EAN 2012 to Jmijrvi EFJM.
Rest is history, but I noticed Kim is really a capable Europa aerobatic
pilot and a teacher aldo.
We spent a wonderful lifetime week together - my children are still
asking him to come regularly.
Cheers,
Raimo
