Fred, Thanks for that input - those are the position lights I am using, and I too may have to fit thermocouples in order to light a caption in the cockpit if I leave them on and temps get too high. C
Ach - that plane was something of a hope for me... :-( I believe it was Hedley Brown's. Hedley, you out there and can you confirm? Regards, Jeremy Jeremy Davey Europa Monowheel 537M G-EZZA Europa Clu
(Apologies to the non-UK folks on the list, but I need to reach all the UK folks on this one.) You may or may not have noticed the "CAN-do Corner" column (text below) in the last Popular Flying. The
(Again, apologies to the non-UK folks - another local issue I need to consult on.) Many in the UK Europa community know I'm passionate about wanting 'extended privileges' (Night and IMC) in Europas a
Thanks, Alan - this is one I'm very keen to see happen, as you know. I thought you bought your plane ready-built, though... ;-) Looking forward to those drinks - Snaefell on a hot summers evening? Ch
Mike, Thanks for your support in this! (Everyone, please keep the responses coming, the more I get, the stronger the case.) Can I just clarify something? This about IMC privileges in Permit aircraft,
What about Mode S, too??? Perhaps the Great Bustard is a blessing in disguise - we could argue to EASA that they don't carry Mode S, so why should we? :-) On second thoughts, maybe not... Jeremy Dave
Jeff, Sorry, but Richard IS right. The new Europa DO care about the old customers who were 'done over' by Wilson, just as we all do. But if they were to start sending out very expensive free parts to
Thanks, Jeff :-) He's looking for a 52" plasma box with integrated Sky Digital, NTSC would be nice, but PAL is essential. Is that a problem? I'm sure you understand the point I'm trying to make. I wi
Just a quick word of warning... The CreativAir nav lights with built-in landing lights won't fit under Graham's lenses, which are smaller than the Europa ones. Graham's are fine for smaller systems l
That's odd! Mine wouldn't! I had some very early lenses from Graham, so perhaps his later ones were bigger? Graham, any thoughts? Cheers, Jeremy Jeremy Davey Europa Monowheel 537M G-EZZA Europa Club
Andrew, I don't know if you can get it over there, but over here there is a very light, 3/4", white, reasonably flexible, plastic piping you can get for the overflow pipe for toilet cisterns. It's so
Alan, I've sent you a PDF copy - attached to a separate email as this Forum doesn't allow attachments. Cheers, Jeremy Jeremy Davey Europa Monowheel 537M G-EZZA Europa Club Vice-Chairman, Webmaster, P
In fairness to the factory, I think that solution was applied worldwide! Andrew, if Mike can't find those instructions, I'm sure that if you contact the new factory, Andy will email them to you. I'm
John, Thanks for the info - most interesting. If Andy and Neville OK's it, I'll fly with you any time :-) I'm sure you know where I was coming from - I've seen some dodgy work in my time! Cheers, Jer
TruTracks seem to be going down well, too. I have one in G-EZZA, and I'm aware of a few now being installed in the UK. Feedback is that that servos are rather higher quality than the Navaid ones - ap
The cynic in me wants to reply: "Because you haven't paid thousands of pounds/dollars/euros more for the certified version? The label on yours is different to the certified one." Probably not entirel
Cliff, Your email fills me with embarrassment. I was asked to do the following last Monday and didnt get it done: "to post a message on the forum sites to the effect that this issue of Europa Flyer i
Andrew (et al), Can I suggest you check your build manual against the latest updates available online? I've got a feeling that the depth of that counterbore has been significantly reduced - but only
Andrew, Builders often find this on one side - the other has a steeper angle on the pushrod and doesnt suffer. You have the same problem if it's impacting on the double rib. If that's the case, just
