    Hi, i'd recommend the Stratomaster FF-1 from MGL. I've had a single Floscan 201 flow transducer for some time, with a 'fiddled' K factor - to account for the return flow. That is the cheaper approach and it works quite well, though accuracy is based on several re-adjustments of the K factor over a number of flights between full tanks /an 'average consumption/hr per flight', of course. To improve this i have just fitted a second Floscan in the return line and using the Differential flow function within the FF-1 unit - so I'm hoping it should be close to 100% accurate. LAA SM12209 refers. The FF-1 also has a GPS-read function so it can display fuel consumption based on ground speed - which is useful if you find you find yourself battling unexpected headwinds . . .

    Steve, i recommend Sky4Covers [sarah@sky4covers.co.uk] based EX24 6DT/village of Colyton. I'm very happy with mine and i opted for the slighly heavier touring cover in beige Weathermax80 - to go over the cowling from the prop flange and over the top and sides of the cockpit right back to just beyond the vent tubes. Cost 612 in May 2017, still going strong. Good quality workperson-ship. Clive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=488857#488857

    Bud, As a new Europa owner I want to thank you again for taking the time to chat with me at Sun-N-Fun. I learned a lot from our conversation as well as the opportunity to climb over your Europa.
