Hi! Kevin,
Nice plane, nice plane, sorry I missed you . Did Ed pass the message about
changing the main gear tyres round to prolong their life?
My additional cooling is from the engine intake naca vent being large enough
to take dual piping, one to the engine and one to the P1 foot well through a
butterfly shut off box. The P2 footwell has warm air from the oil cooler
directed through a butterfly box also.
It's North Weald tomorrow (10th ) and East Fortune also.Popham Sunday(ppr

Subject: Cockpit cooling
Folks,
I never expected this to be a problem here in the UK but since getting my
tri gear and with the warm weather here in the UK, over the last couple of
weeks (which has gone now) im finding it a bit warm in the Europa.
Its a little uncomfortable when its 26/27 deg. I was wondering if anyone has
any suggestions for more cooling.
I have cabin heat which Im sure I will be grateful for in winter but no
cooling other than the small slots in the footwell.
Any suggestions?
Also Im interested to hear of any Europa flyins coming up in the UK.
Regards
Kevin
