Clive, you could always donate it to the Europa Club Tools loan scheme.
We stock a range of specialised tools and equipment that the average builder/owner
could not justify purchasing.
I just happen to administer it ..... so have a vested interest!
If you're planning on attending the Club AGM - this Saturday at Popham - bring
it with you.
Nigel

Subject: | Re: Tail Plane Fitting |
My last update (quoted below) seems to have updated on the website but didn't seem
to email out. I will do this update via the website to see if that is more
reliable.
I've made further progress and now I have both tailplanes fitting quite well, the
front pin is almost fully engaged (about 0.5mm or 0.02" to go) and the back
pin is about 2mm (approx 5/64" or .0787") from being fully engaged.
Any further suggestions or advice on how to sort out the discrepancy between the
front and back pins would be greatly appreciated.
As a side note, I've discovered that 9.5 degrees C or 49 degrees F is ideal for
fitting the metal parts together. It is proving much easier to install and remove
the torque tube now than in warmer weather.

More searching shows it is a Saf Air M12175. Available from Aircraft Spruce
at $43.95. So the thread is 12X1.75
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/eppages/safOilDrainValves.php?clickkey=4298847
Thank you very much once again Jim.
Armed with the info you have so kindly provided, I find I am able to
purchase a similar product here in Oz at a very reasonable price so have now
ordered it.
Much obliged
Kingsley

16th-18th June
It was a great event chaps. The people and the hospitality were fantastic.
It was great to get the longest flight prize. 580nm+ either way! I shared it with
David and Karen also from the UK as they'd flown almost as far.
Thanks Roland for inviting us to this event. You may not have organised it, but
you were the one that brought it to our attention. I'll hopefully see you chaps
at another one. If you're planning to attend any others, please post them on
this forum so others can see if they can make it too.
All the best.

Hello to all, this post made me think I need to fit one of these as well.
A quick search on the Internet yielded this result from Quick Valve in the UK.
Model F107N has a nipple to allow a tube to be fitted and it costs 23.97 GBP plus
postage. Mine is on it's way.

Dear Europaphiles,
because it was so nice at the Bad Drkheim fly-in last weekend, I just want to let
you know, that I'm planning to attend this event. Yet a couple of Europa pilots
have announced their coming as well.
Would be great to meet you there (again) :-)
Cheers

The product at this link is exactly the same product as what I have
ordered over/down here. Only difference is the part number being
EZ-107. The hose nipple is extra.
