I have just discovered that Windyty offers superb world wide actual and 10 day predictions of cloud base and visibility, those factors which commonly ruin planned trips in the UK and which other sites offer little or poor assistance with. It certainly seems worth getting to know your wa round the site.

The three others who share the Europa with me are all happy with how sweetly it runs. The compressions were measured very recently and are excellent (close to 200 psi). The oil pressure is good being in the vicinity of 4 bar. BUT.... Nine times out of ten the oil drains quickly (overnight) from the tank to a level below the flat on the dipstick. This wasn't always so and has become worse over time. It used to take about a dozen compressions done quite slowly to push the oil back into the tank, while these days it can often take 50 or more compressions. Why? My supposition is that the oil escapes past the oil pump and the rate of escape depends on the position of the pump lobes when at rest. So if the oil pressure remains good in flight, what's changed? Perhaps the oil pressure relief valve is sticking in some way? Your experience and knowledge of likely causes would be gratefully received.
