I've finally gotten around to posting the pilot report on Europa that originally appeared in last July's (?) issue of Air Progress magazine. It's available on the Europa WebSite; for anyone without W

Not a bad location if you want to make the a/c more visible in the daytime--but *horrible* at night as you'll be blinded once per second by the reflection from the wings, not to mention a "frozen" pr

A couple of items regarding the Europa which will be built by Air Progress and Sport Flying magazines here in the US: 1.) I'm happy (actually, appalled, but as you'll see things worked out all right)

Something you all may wish to keep in mind re heat and fan controls is that any of them that contain switches--particularly those switching high current loads like heating elements--may create sparks

Hi, Martin-- I'm just about to start out on my Europa and should be getting a ratio pump in the next couple of days. I notice that the instructions don't make any special mention of aeropoxy. Does it

Hello, all-- I've had the chance to fly about six hours in Boomerang, including two long cross-countries (on which I saw around 250 KTAS on 20 US gph!). At the same time, I had the chance to watch Bu

Just a note for those contemplating use of the GARMIN 45 in Europa: Some of the "random turnoffs" of the unit may have something to do with its built-in 90-knot speed limit--an unassailable software

I've used the micro encoder quite a bit, most recently on a couple of long x/c flights in Burt Rutan's "Boomerang." It's a terrific instrument, and I've always thought very well of RMI's products. HO

Hello, all--please note that a mag compass will _not_ serve in any way as "a cheap a/h." They're kept level by their own weight suspended from the bearing pivot--i.e. in a turn they'll try to tilt to

Interesting thought. Given the extremely small and cheap rate gyros available today (eight pin DIP package), that might be a basis for an electronic attitude indicator; after all, it's how S-tec auto
