I've been following this thread and I think I want to step in here. I mounted my filters under an armrest door/ cover in the tunnel just between the seats. I can open the hatch and look at the filter
Hi Richard, Don't worry, Europas are being advertised in the Kit Planes buyers directory now for $37 to $38K. I paid what I paid 4 years ago and I was being a little general in the statement. It was
Mike, Don't paint anything until everything is done. Install the plexi as per instructions. I filled in the gaps with quick-cell. Some have laid up a 2 inch tape of bid around the windshield at this
HI All, I remember this was discussed before, but to know resolution as I recall. I Have been fighting an RF problem with my I-Com radio. The RF is obviously getting into the ground as even the trim
Paul, I'm going to remove the panel and have the local avionics shop that wired it install the ferrite beads where I mentioned. As soon as I reinstall it I'll let you know. I guess I can live with it
Hi Jeff, hows it going? Yes I agree the ground is the most likely place it's getting in but I'v run a second ground to the radio rack the engine monitor the trim and still can't get rid of it. I'll t
Wow Carl, If I can buy built Europa's across the pond for 25 to 35K I'm coming across soon. To buy a new kit here is alone $36K! Of course I don't think they'll sell many at that price. Jeff A258
Hi All, While taxi testing I have noticed the 912-S running rough or vibration at around 2600 to 2900 RPM's. It's very smooth before and after that. The carb's have been balanced, but my spinner is o
This is to inform all the on 3/10/06 after 3.5 years of building that N128LJ took to the sky's out of MQY Smyrna TN. After my friend Mike test flew it around the pattern I couldn't help myself. So I
Thanks to all that have replied! My test pilot was Mike Bowden who has flown everything but the kitchen sink. He has never sat in a Europa before but like all skilled pilots with 20K plus hours it wa
I think I'll jump in here. I agree with Bryan except I can only speak --From fixed pitch prop experience. I have a Tri-Gear with only 4 hours on it. I can say I am really pleased! I have set the Warp
Thanks Glenn, for going where none of us dare travel! You have given me a possible look at my future after 500 plus hours on my 912-S. Perhaps I too could persuade myself to live in such boredom. Ple
Hi All, As a low time pilot that is enjoying his finished toy, I have noticed the pitch forces are quite a bit greater than that of the aileron. Thats while sitting on the ground or in the air at man
Hi Jeff, Not sure if I'll have the 40 off. I'm having a serious time problem right now. We have started building on the property I showed you. As most people that have this flying disease I have buil
Congratulations Dave! I know what you mean about that panel in and out thing. I'll be removing mine again for some changes soon. I also know what you mean on that time thing. I spent most of my time
John, I remember that flight Crafters did what your suggesting and did away with the pip pin. I didn't, but doing it makes sense to me and If I had to do it over I would have. Just my 2 cents worth.
Congradulations John! Sounds like your going to have a fast and I know a very fun bird. Keep us informed on your test. I think you have a winning combo with the Jab and new prop you are using. Are yo
Hi Dan... I'll jump in here and say I'll be there but my bird only has 25 hours on it so it won't. I'll start the list with my name cell phone if anyone else wants to jump in. Thanks, Jeff R A258 N12
Kevin, I have flown 27 hours off of N128LJ without a problem. I noticed a little debris collecting in the left filter so I have switched to the right side. I mounted the filters under a door in an ar
