Regards Ivan -----Original Message----- From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Tim Ward Sent: Tuesday, May 23, 2017 9:21 AM Subject: Re: Europa-List: Re: Nev Eyre What a sad loss. I can't say I knew him well. Met him in 1996 at Europa factory, Kirbymoorside and he was so enthusiastic and proud about the Europa aircraft. Very pragmatic, transparent and approachable. Always answered my request concerning the build. My condolences to Carol and the family.

An emotional moment. Thanks to all, it would not have been possible without the help of the forum. Alfredo reported that everything was fine except for a marked nose up tendency despite trim My trim is standard Kit LED with a vehicle Electric Window Switch and the Dynon AP panel. The trim works normally on the ground with the appropriate deflections. Alfredo even suggested taking off with two LED bar nose down which i suspect is not normal. I spoke to Bud who suggested the following as a first look 1. Check the trim is working correctly (not back to front) 2. Check the CG for tail heavy 3. Check the flaps fully retract against the incidence template. Suggestions and ideas welcome.

Is it me or a general glitch? Can someone let me know if a funeral date for Neville is set. Thanks William G- WUFF ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 02:12:33 PM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: no messages From: "jonathanmilbank" Hi William, I believe that the funeral will be on Monday 5th June and probably at Scarborough, but please don't take my word for it. Rather contact a committee member, because I've heard that they're organising a "delegation" to attend the funeral.
