Thanks for notice regarding La Rochelle fly in. Regrettably Europa Kit 49 wont be ready to fly as regrettably so will many others. Guess we will have to pit that one on our calendar for next year. Ca
Its a long time since I flew in G-YURO but I distinctly remember there was a ducted heating system, a point which Ivan Shaw made a point of mentioning. Somewhere along the way, Europa aviation decide
You certainly cant use the same ratios for volume as for weight. Reading from the technical leaflet (you get one with each pack of resins) the volumetric ratio is 100 resin to 29 hardener. We have be
Re your enquiry as to cost of Europa I reckon as follows ( these are only approximate but I reckon are fairly realistic.) Stage 1/2/3 kit #12,500 Rotax engine kit # 9,000 Average Instrument Fit # 3,0
now that you mention it it is probably more than 21 ft. Cant give you exact dimention till G-LABS is finished. You'll have to ask Europa Aviation. I ghuess it could add another two to three feet, gue
Has anyone any thoughts on the fitment on antennae. I believe most are opting for the factory reccommended comms fit, but what about navs, xponders and GPS. Have priced most of the commercially avail
Yes I definitely was interested in the VM instrument system (saves so much space). I rang them and guess what, they dont make em for Rotaxes. If you can cram a Continental or Lycoming in your Europa
Reference the use of strobes, I get the impresion that builders have been going for several options. I believe Peter Kember has fitted the Goldwing strobes, and some have gone for the Wheelen unit. I
Dot Pattinson will be standing down as club Treasurer at this years AGM. The Committee are now looking for a replacement. No formal qualfications are required, just a head for figures (ie - you can o
I am at a similar stage to Perer Davis in that it is decision time to fit the lid. I feel that we could delay Reduxing the lid until a litle later along the line. The reason is that I have yet to fit
Several months ago someone ( I believe it was Graham Laucht) published a circuit design for a 12 - 28 volt converter, to drive a Turn & Slip. I am looking for some way of driving a 28 volt radio ( ra
Those of you still contemplating the purchase of a Digital Level may be interested to know of a promotional offer that is being run by Bosch. For the next three months these are on offer for about #8

Graham Singleton has quite rightly emphasised the need for protecting the skin from contact with resins. I would like to add that there is also a real need to wear respiratory protection. Many Europa
Glad to hear of another successful Europa completion. Graham S, you have referred to the "bounce moderator " on several occasions. Could you tell the viewers exactly what this device is and where one
I have spent this morning messing about with bits of foam trying to sort out these wing root fillets. Talk about a waste of time - it must be at least another two/ three days work.. For the sake an e
Yes it does stick to paint but then the paint chips off. Most concrete floors have a thin overcoat (for levelling purposes) and this chips away too. You really need to chisel away at the floor to mak
Building a Europa! Ideally a 19'x8' garage with plenty of other storage space - a decent sized spare bedroom. Contrary to popular belief, building a Europa isnt cheap. Expect to spend at least #32,00
Yes, you're absolutely right. It is a CD unit. Our Ivan likes in plane entertainment when he flies. In G- YURO I seem to recall it was a tape cassette hooked into the intercom. I expect G-ODTI will h
