We had an unlatched canopy incident here at Punta Gorda last weekend. I Long Eze went in about a half mile from the departure end of the runway. The pilot is 72 and has been flying the airplane for 2
Al I have mine installed but have not used it yet. I think you are going to be much better off with a vertical dipole in the Europa than a ground plane. The Archer antenna the others spoke about is a
Al The plastic bag is a good idea. I should do mine also, probably using the same method. Did you put any means of monitoring the temp in the bag, and did you support the wings / ailerons in multiple
