Hi Rowland,Thanks for your e-mail,You are correct,the Europa #a026 was
Norman Marsh,s.Sadly Norman had an accident in the rockies about one and
half years, ago in his glider, and I purchased A026 from his estate, this
spring.Gliding in the rockies can be quite dangerous,just this last week
another friend of a friend kissed the rocks near Creston.I am having some
problems getting through the registration process as the paper work done by
Norman during his part of the construction is missing.I may even have to
trailer the aircraft down to Lakeland in Florida ,when I get it completed
,get it registered down there,put 100 hrs on it, then bring it back to
Canada, to get the Canadian numbers on it,oh.oh.oh,the ways of govt.can be
frustrating. If you know the aircraft or are interested in some photos I can
e-mail them to you. Frank S Wood.
