Would be interested to here of any speculation (unless someones already attempted it!) of how a Europa would perform in a wheelup ditching. Probaly quite well; would it nose over? would it sink? Rgds

As a rider to Graham C`s posting, I would ask wether the drop tests also consider torsional loads generated by landing at a crab angle. JAR-VLA doesn`t require this in the "deemed to satisfy" drop te

I have always used Alodine (a sort of DIY anodising) and epoxy chromate primer on my alloy bits. Believe me, if you want to remove the stuff you will have to grind it off! Alodine is not supposed to
