A friend of me has the same problem... In my mind its the park brake box (pvpv-d for matco system) Im curious to know how it works... But in general the europa brake system conception seems to be poor... Im surprised to see a twister caliper piston pushing on only half a pad...

I use Mil 5606 in 12AY, and t hat is a sticky fluid which probably didn=92t help either. By the way, the master and slave cylinders can stick also. If your brake c aliper slides are a bit on the loose side, then you can cock the brake cali per and it just won=92t release unless the plane is moved. Also the calipe r piston is prone to cocking causing a dragging brake. I=92m thinking of going to a wagon wheel wood to tire park brake setup with a long handle and cable. It=92s 50 pounds, so I=92m thinking of making it lighter and smaller. Perhaps a set of custom chocks made from small alumi num angle may be a smarter idea.

It happened to me one hot day...I left the aircraft out in the sun with the parking brake on and and it bound on - apparently the older PA28s do it. I cant remember the explanation though. If it happens take the brakes off and put it in the shade. it will loosen after a while William Daniell LONGPORT On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 5:42 PM diamond > wrote: .fr>> Hello, I own an xs tri with finger brakes After having activated the parking brake, my left brake was stuck.

I dont understand what you mean by : Im thinking of going to a wagon wheel wood to tire park brake setup with a long handle and cable. You want to avoid to use park brakes? I wonder which fluid is the best to minimize this problem... I requested a quote from berringer for a full brake set including wheels and Im waiting for it.

Two new ignition boxes are around $1,000 each (!) so I'm not sure I want to sink that kind of money into a 20 year old engine even though it only has 300 hours on it. I like the look of the 912ULS, it has a bit more power, a heavy duty starter and a slow start module that seems to have resolved the ragged starting issues of the early engines. If you have a 912ULS I'd be interested to hear what you think of the engine and how long you have had it. Also, will it fit in the same engine ring mount as the 912UL - I'm thinking particularly of the size of the starter. Many thanks, Martin Tuck N152MT ________________________________ Message 10 ____________________________________ Time: 10:08:58 PM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: Rotax 912ULS From: "SPURPURA" Thinking of changing the ignition modules? Remember you will need to change the flywheel too. The ULS seems to run cooler and requires less maintenance than the 914, but the high altitude performance is great. -------- N951EU - Tri-gear & 912ULS, N77EU- Mono & 914 I'D RATHER HAVE A BOTTLE IN FRONT OF ME THAN A FRONTAL LABOTAMY.
