One aspect that new builders could forget it to enable the seat cushion to pivot
up against the backrest for entry and exit.
To get in from the front or back side of the wing means you end up with your butt
sat on the headrest and your feet on the seat base.
To avoid getting the seat base cushion messed up it needs to be lifted and rotated
against the backrest.
The cushion is restored to its rightful place as you slide in.
Pretty obvious to seasoned pilots but not necessarily for newbies.

Once again, thanks to all for the valuable feedback. I believe I have enough for
continuing tweaking my cushions.
I am planning a x-country this weekend so will first try increasing thigh support.
I am a little hesitant to increase the lumbar support since I have quite a
bit already (not as much as Erich) and like having my legs stretched while flying
and I am at a limit there but will try that if all else fails.
Thanks,
Chris

Interesting device Olivier. Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to hearing more about how it works and of any field experience.

Fred,
Back in 2005 we paid $350 for each pair of cushions and $1200 for upholstery, which
is just blue fabric.
Today I looked at the website and bare cushions for Lancair 360 and others similar
to Europa run $400 to $500 per seat (2 cushions). Upholstery is extra.
There is a new set of RV8 cushions on VAF that are upholstered in leather and the
asking price is $6000, supposed new price is $6900.

I just got confirmation that the Europa forum is scheduled for Thursday, April
7 at 12:00 Noon in room CFAA-02. This is an opportunity to meet others and exchange
ideas and experiences.
Hope to see you there!

Hi Oliver
Not much details on mixture control.
** Is there a way of immediately bypassing leaning?
** Does the O2 sensor go through a test when powered up and if not within specs
gives you a warning?
** Do you have EGT/s?
** Can you control manually, get peak EGT and go richer?
Using an O2 sensor to control a mixture monitor does not require a fast response
time of the O2 sensor. Even a few second response time is fine. When a O2 sensor
is exposed to lead, it begins to slow down. After a while not only will it
slow down but high and low parameters begin to get closer. I have a mixture
monitor on my 914, I expect to get 75 or more hours out of sensor using 100LL.
I welded a bung onto tail pipe just downstream of muffler to hold O2 sensor.
If you are using an O2 sensor for mixture control, you need a fast O2 sensor response
time.
