Subject: | Re: How to properly hoist a Europa Trigear |
Many thanks, Bud
Last week me and our local mechanic used just that tube/bar into the
wheel method and it worked great for getting the mains off and back on.
This week it's time for the nose wheel.
Now, my Europa has a self-retracting (spring-loaded) tail tie-down. I'm
unsure whether this is standard or something that the builder came up
with himself (as I recall, it might be custom for this a/c individual).
Any idea if such a tie-down would be safe to use for raising the nose gear?
I'll sure check with the builder as well, but any thoughts would be welcome.
/ Erik

A&P mechanics have no idea what to do with a Europa when the pilot/owner non
builder is confronted with something as simple as a tire change or annual service.

Ron,
This is an early GRT EFIS magnetometer that has two 3 wire shielded cables. I
put ferrites on both wires.
GRT recommends placing the magnetometer in the wing tip. But since I anticipated
using both sets of wings, I did not want to have to recalibrate the magnetometer
when switching wings, hence the interior placement overhead.
