I have to say that I disagree with Stanislav's comments regarding the Europa
design and build. After all, this is a kit plane, not a commercially
designed and tested aircraft made by Piper et al. It has not been around
that long and there are bound to be areas that can be improved by innovative
thought. That is where we, the builders, use our knowledge and
resourcefulness to make those improvements and share them with others. Why
blame the factory? Surely part of the challenge is to solve such problems
and improve the design for later builders. The forum is a fine place to do
this.
I have to say that I am wholly impressed by the way this plane is put
together and there has been a great deal of thought put into its design.
There have been several moments when I have considered how the design has
been thought out and thought how clever it is.
Perhaps it is because I have built models throughout my younger life that
often require a lot of thought and ingenuity to put them together!
So leave the factory alone to give Neville time to answer all my calls!
