| Subject: | Rotax carb rubbers |
300hr service 5.5 years - changed the carb rubbers on the 912S. Old ones perfect
though, no cracking, still flexible, still in good shape. Also fuel lines -
they were in good shape too.

| Subject: | Re: Landing Light Positioning |
I have a preference for the Vega as a landing light. Initially thought of 2 off,
1 per wing. However, they are massively expensive (Spruce quote $425 USD)
- therefore one only could be mounted under the chin intake. I drew up a fairing
which aligns the beam to about 5 deg down based on landing config alpha.
The idea was to have the moulding 3D printed (cost around 50 each) and hand finish
to match the plane.
We could progress this as a Std Mod if enough interest. ALso we may be able to
get a better price for 5off or 10off 'bulk' purchase.
Maybe discuss at the AGM (if the clouds clear and ceiling improves- currently

Hi Richard,
It will be interesting to see how quickly they respond to your
application.
We can not send application till we are ready in Spain to notify times etc. So
response time is important.
Does Jose know any contact in ANAC
to check status of application.
We ate now three Europas travelling this time.

Hi David,
I think the important thing here is permission and not so much the dates. From
three years experience as an owner/operator here, all seems ok just so long as
ATC and ANAC
KNOW who you are, not that you were supposed to be here last week!
Jose is suggesting 10 days minimum notice so I would do this before leaving the
UK and don't let planned entry/exit dates spoil your trip. Prior to entry, file
your flight plan by Skydemon (or other) and you can always phone Lisboa on
00351 218553341 who are very helpful and will confirm your plan.
Hopefully this is not a big a deal as the Notam would imply, but I may say differently
on my planned trip out to Uk in a couple of weeks.

Richard,
Yes i guess you are correct and will do what you suggest.
The form gives the option of selecting Authorize or Notify in one box. I selected
Authorize.
Another box asks for Version of Ac? I put Class. A.
The reference box i put my Ac reg.
To save having the form returned can you let me know how your was successful.
Will you be around last week of July??

| Subject: | WD blades in UK anyone ? |
For reasons I won't mention here yet, I did a wheel up landing last week. I was
able to switch the engine off before landing so the engine isn't shock loaded,
but one of the Warp Drive blades 'dug in' and failed. The aircraft sustained
very little other damage, just some damage to the lower cowl and a severed rudder
cable.
To save time, does anyone have a set of standard none tapered Warp Drive Blades
available suitable for use with a Rotax 912S ?

I've not had mine returned yet as not submitted, but a must do job for tomorrow.
Certainly here end of July, Europas always welcome at Viseu and pleased to help
out any way I can. Serra region well worth a visit if you can stay for a couple
of days although might not be much 'room at the inn' as a busy time of year
for us. Keep me posted as your plans firm up.

Thanks Roddy and Ian
So, normally open contacts, closed / operated by the vacuum caused by the wing
angle and therefore light and buzzer should be off on the ground.
Makes sense.
Does anybody with this mod fitted test it on the ground and if so, how?
A quick suck on the orifice like the Cessna.
