Just a quick word of warning... The CreativAir nav lights with built-in
landing lights won't fit under Graham's lenses, which are smaller than the
Europa ones. Graham's are fine for smaller systems like the usual
incandescents from Whelen, or possibly some of the smaller LED systems.

Anyone in the UK who needs a mod for fitting these - mine is approved
subject to flight testing, and it looks like Pete Kember is going to beat me
on that by a fair margin!

Cheers,
Jeremy

So far I know of two sources for LED lights. CreativAir and GS-Air. Web
sites are: http://www.creativair.com/ and http://www.gs-air.com 
CreativAir nav lights has to be mounted on the leading edge of the
wingtip, and has the option of including a landing light. GS-Air nav
lights must be mounted at the center of the wingtip, and includes a
strobe and a rearward-looking white light, and it come in a preformed
plexiglas housing. 

Are there other sources? 

Does Europa still sell the wingtip lenses? Which design would be most
compatible with the Europa XS wing? I am looking for any general advice
in this regard. 

Thanks everyone, and Happy New Year to everybody!!
