Hi All,
I've requested EAA to schedule the Europa Owner / Pilot / Enthusiast forum on either
Tuesday July 23 or Wednesday July 24 at the Homebuilders Hanger.
We plan to arrive Sunday and probably depart Thursday. We will be camping in Homebuilt
Camping. Look for a bright orange tent.
Erich Trombley and Mike Duane are planning to fly from Las Vegas. Thorston Schilling
expressed an interest in flying in also.
I promise to check my cell phone, 269-599-0122.
Jim & Heather

Among many exotic or special ways of acquiring enjoyment is watching women without clothes. This may be an act of art also for some person. So you are able to visit http://myteenwebcam.com if you prefer this kind of video. It is not recommended to visit it if you are under 21 by the way. The collection of videos is available almost around the clock.

Well, I can't compete on the lady front for quality, except of course for my perfect
wife, but I can make up to some extent with quantity! My Wonderful Angel
and I go to modern jive dance classes twice a week, as we have done since we
met there almost 15 years ago.
My goal is to reach at least 1000 different people being taken for a flight in
my Europa before I'm "past it" and those people should never previously have been
up in a small 2 seat aircraft in their lives. Already I've exceeded 500 such
passengers and at least 300 were women. Perhaps this is because I don't tend
to dance with men!
Naturally each and every passenger meets with the approval of "She who must be
obeyed", so I've never gotten past first base. In any case at nearly 70, I wouldn't
know what to do if anything were offered anyway. Furthermore that's never
been the objective.
Here's how we get "down and dirty" twice a week, doing everything and more dance
moves than seen in this link:

And our legs don't risk getting entangled in flying controls. I guess you would
have to remove the control stick to achieve level 6!

Hi Europaphiles,
So it's been a few weeks but I have finished up my panel upgrade to a
Dynon EFIS and it all works great - well it comes on at least and my
avionics shop passed the transponder operation.
I went to do my first flight with it this evening and just could not get
the darn engine (Rotax 912UL) to start. Just lots of cranking from the
freshly charged battery.
Obviously I had removed and replaced the panel but everything seems to
work OK, fuel pump, starter, etc. so I don't think there is anything
wrong there - although I would like to make sure the mags are on. The
best way I can think of is to test for a spark. Any recommendations out
there for testing to see if you have a spark? I believe the removal of a
spark plug is not recommended on a Rotax. I felt the hint of a kick once
or twice so I suspect they are good.
My suspicions lie with the carbs - in particular the choke. It is really
stiff and the geometry is such that it never quite fully opens. I
removed the air box and stuck my nose next to the air intakes.
Considering the amount of cranking and choking I had done you would
think I would be able to smell fuel - but couldn't smell anything.
Anyone used some kind of 'quick start fluid' like the kind I use on my
stubborn lawnmower or is that a bit too extreme?
Anything 'more obvious' I can try?
Regards,
Martin Tuck
