Hi Emmanuel
Everyone in the LAA with a Europa received the official notification you have just
seen.
Major alerts are also announced in the Europa Flyer and the Europa Club website.
Particularly useful for those Europa owners and builders who are not resident
in the UK and not members of the LAA.
Records from the various sources of mandatory and non mandatory modifications are
found within the Building section of the club website.
https://www.theeuropaclub.org/building/europa-mods-and-sbs/laa-standard-mods
Europa Club Modifications Officers continue to maintain this useful archive.
There are a number of sources for these modifications held on the website:-
Factory changes and updates are covered in Europa Service bulletins (Europa SBs)
and Factory Newsletters. You must comply with Europa SBs and any mandatory instructions
from your regulatory authority. In the UK these are Mandatory Permit
Directives (MPDs) and Airworthness Information Leaflets (AILs).
Europa Modifications (Europa Mods). These are factory options you may wish to fit.
LAA Standard Mods. These are options fully approved by the LAA
Repeat and other useful mods. These are Mods previously made by builders and approved
by the LAA for their aircraft.
Obsolete Mods. These are mandatory modifcations which SHOULD have been carried
out already. You should only need to check these once, when completing a new aircraft,
but it MUST be done.
Europa Parts. This section contains details of the parts kits for instruments offered
Europa.
The Europa Club may also create an Alert in certain circumstances. Often then superseded
by an official comment.
Trust that helps
Regards
Bob

Hi all,
Please pardon this question from an outsider.
On several Europa pictures some lines and squares can be seen on the
inside skin of the aircraft.
Are those lines related to some left-over peel ply, or is there some
other purpose, reason, origin for those lines ?
Best regards,

Hi Emmanuel,
The previous advice from Kelvin, Roland and Bob is good. The approved LAA Modification
can be found here:
http://www.lightaircraftassociation.co.uk/engineering/TADs/247/MOD80.pdf
I sourced my silicon hoses and clamps from this UK outfit:
https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/s?search=Samco+ProFue
However, I found it difficult to tighten the hoses sufficiently to stop a small
amount of fulel seeping out. The solution was to spread a thin layer of Hylomar
blue on the outside of the aluminium tube where it connects with the silicon
tubing, under the clamps. This gives a fuelproof seal to the connection. The
sealant can be found here:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0064M6A6G/ref=pe_3187911_189395841_TE_3p_dp_1
Hope this helps

Those are guide lines in the pre-preg used for the kit parts supplied ready-
made. Builders can ignore them.

Subject: | Port wing bellcrank |
I'm in the middle of XS wing construction and have just riveted the
BC4W10 to a W13 Bellcrank. To save time I riveted a second one, exactly
the same. Now I am thinking they should have been a mirror image of each
other. Are there any builders with really good memories (or records) out
there that can confirm I have screwed up?
Brian in Aus.

Hi Brian, the aileron assemblies are handed (mirrored), I dont think you can get
away with just flipping the bellcrank around either but you might try.
