    Subject: Re: Aluminium Elbow
    The LAA have issued LAA Standard Mod 14809 to permit the use of an aluminium elbow with a bend angle of between 45 degrees and 60 degrees to suit individual aircraft as there is build variation that can affect this angle. As Profuel fuel proof hose is not immediately available the mod also permits the continued use of lengths of the original factory supplied hose, subject to an annual inspection. This mod should permit the return to service of any Europa with a failed original rubber hose and also enable those of us that have had aluminium elbows fitted for a number of years to record the standard mod in their inspection logs. If you want to fit a Profuel silicone elbow when they become available you will have to apply for an individual mod for your aircraft. Probably the quickest way to do this would be for one person to apply for a prototype mod and then others can use the Repeat Mod system. This works when you are prepared to install an identical mod. I am sorry it was not possible to include this option in the standard mod as we don=99t have an LAA aircraft with one fitted to form the basis of the standard mod. I have attached a copy of the Standard Mod to save searching the LAA website.

This way I'd only have two connections rather than four. However I understand, that the LAA only approves the Mod with the aluminium pipe.

    On April 21, Plane Crazy Saturday, Mojave Experimental Fly-In http://mojavemuseum.org/events/ The museum has a dinner that evening with guest speaker Bill Norton, not sure if this is the son of the creator of the flying wing, but will find out. If you want to stay overnight I can find out about hotel rooms near the airport. Myself and Todd Johnson will be renting a car or van to go to Red Rock Canyon Park in the morning. If you have ever watch a "B" western movie with beautiful rock formations in the back ground this is the place where it was filmed. If you are interested let me know. Staying for dinner RSVP 661-824-2481 "Donation requested for talk." For a Room E-mail me. I'll make some arrangement with a hotel.

    That doesn't look very simple. Anyone use an exhaust muff and ducting? Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=477829#477829
