| Subject: | UK DOTH fly-in 20th June 2024 |
Is anyone up for a DOTH fly-in to Halfpenny Green (Wolverhampton) airfield on Thursday
20th June ? So far, the weather looks good, and there are good reports
of the new restaurant/cafe that has been recently refurbished. If so, let me
know and I will book a lunchtime table. PPR is required (either through the website
or by phone), and further details can be found on their website.I will plan
to arrive for Noon.

My interior is all painted minus the baggage area and foot floor where I used lightweight
speaker cover type carpet. I used Zolatone over epoxy primed glass.
No Expancell. Despite being told Zolatone would not hide much, not true. It looks
just fine and so far very happy.
However, my airplane is noisy but can't tell if much more or less than other Europas
with interior. I am getting used to it. When I first flew it it was very
light but quite spartan inside. Now with exterior paint and added seat stuff
and avionics it is up to 820#. With the DUC prop and a 912ULS the takeoff performance
is amazing (it's fun to get compliments from the tower controller) and
cruise not bad at around 130-135 knots. Very happy.

Ron,
Expancel is great stuff. I happened to have enough for my project but always wondered
what could replace it.
The only epoxy filler I have seen that looks like Expancel is the West System 410
(Per the SDS: A blend of thermoplastic polymer microspheres and inorganic amorphous
silicates). It has that tan color but it also has glass. It does have
plastic copolymers and phenols so it may be close to Expancel.
You can buy a small can of 410 and try see how it compares.
Chris
