Numbers say it is well within the europa's performance envelope of can do... Pulled the 100hp ULS out of its crate and scrubbed it up ready to replace the 80hp... A new set of spark plug lead caps and a five year rubber change service and it will be ready to bolt in.

It didn't have the front cowl or glass installed. On the swing up ramp, our trailer has holes for a tie down. We looped a ratchet tie down up and over the fuse just below the windscreen. That tie down stayed in place only a short time. Since we didn't have the glass installed we went up and over the ceiling. Question, when trailering a Mono XS with cowl and glass installed, how do you hold the front of the plane down, if at all? Thx. Ron P.

I also found a ramp extension was required to load the aircraft otherwise the flaps would contact the trailer. Best regards, Dwayne PS Bud put out a very useful video regarding the mono trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkMHilMEKJk Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=515208#515208 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 06:54:40 PM PST US From: Bud Yerly Subject: Re: Europa-List: Mono trailer front strap Ron, See attached. Big file. If it doesn't transfer I'll send it over drop box .. A properly tuned trailer should not need any fuselage to transporter strap.
