Is there a technical citation for any of this? Regulations in the US governing seat construction of even airliners have no such consideration, and those regs are pegged to G forces much greater than

Ultimately a personal, subjective preference maybe. I've experimented with differing thickness and densities of temperfoam in the back support, and the usual cheapie foam, but I can't detect much dif

The Temperfoam people also make Sunmate, which is cheaper and sold by Wicks. The differences are many -- the nature of the foam, density v. temperature, impact absorption, and flame retardancy. Sunma

Along the same lines, I have the Mk 1 setup with the fuel fill on the top, but no sight gauge. I ran the vent line (1/4" nylon) up to the area of the fuel filler, where there's a check valve at that

Hmmm...define high altitude [I have a 914 :)]. Seriously, the 1/4" tubing that faces the airstream is very thin wall, thus more ID than the SS tubing supplied. It immediately enters a generous water

Graham -- if you're referring to my check valve, ooops, I wasn't clear. It's in the stub of the T-fitting, so the line is always open. Tape over the vent simulating a clog, and even a slight vacuum u

No real disagreement thar, but in overall context we may tend to forget that the Europa has a single fuel tank, for reasons consistent with its design philosophy. In FAA's hazard assessment philosoph

That's good news for tri-gear builders like me, but the _theoretical_ efficiency difference in cruise, 2 vs. 3 blade, is supposed to be very small in favor of 2 blades, from everything I've read. You

Steve, what you propose is fine, as an important factor is the build experience, which you tailor to your own likes. I'll comment on necessity, should it help. The physical inventory doesn't take lon

This sounds like a case for rerouting the line so it just isn't in such proximity to the exhaust pipe. For U.S. builders, firesleeve is in effect required under 23.1183. While Part 23 doesn't technic

Both Stratoflex and Aeroquip provide detailed info on max bend radius for their products. I presume you're referring to the (original) supplied red-striped hose as mediocre, and not aviation-quality

It is intended to be used with their fittings, mating to AN fittings, but there appears to be enough choices in hose ID for a snug fit on the various metric nipples. Regards, Fred F., A063

I recall something like that, and it was about a 1/2". I just lowered the fuselage in its cradle by 1/2", to preserve the other dimensions. I figured there was little magic to the fuse height (except

Garry, I don't think it's a good idea to try to take out some camber in the build, or worse yet, trusting some metal shop to heat and bend the legs, and guarantee the airworthiness. E.g., if just the

Rob, is this based on an engineering analysis? If not, I assume the fulcrum is where the socket tube emerges from the fuselage, and if you move the fulcrum, the leverage on the short arm inside incre

I see now that you were referring to socket tube placement by the book, but mount the leg lower in the socket, rather than a lower mounting of the socket tube. The original post referenced both metho
