The late great Neville Eyre did my tri-gear conversion about 10 years ago, because
although I had completed building my aircraft as a mono 25 years ago, I didn't
want to go through the building anguish again. Furthermore he had the jig
and the time, while I had neither.
Anyhow he told me that someone in England was making the legs, but he Nev had a
pair ready and waiting in his workshop and furthermore they came from a Vans
RV? Or at least that's what I seem to remember. Whatever the facts were, I jumped
at the chance to pay him for the job to be done promptly.

I've just been very reliably informed of the following in an email:
"The Europa tri-gear legs were made by Harmon Lang in the USA, they were a third
of the price quoted in the UK. Harmon and his daughter made all the legs for
VANs aircraft."
Whether they're still doing it, I don't know.

Good find on the legs, hopefully works out.
What about the rest of the stuff, front gear, brakes, etc. Does Europa have those?
Can you source everything elsewhere?
As a long term mono driver I too have occasionally given consideration to the conversion.
Id like to import Bud also and all his knowledge and experience!
Thanks for keeping us all informed on your search.
