I have flown my Europa both ways.  I converted to a  tri-gear about 22 hours 
of flight. I had installed fairing around the  large main wheel. I had wheel 
pant on the tail wheel and on the  outrigger. I used GPS and recorded 151 mph 
on a couple of different  days. Now as a tri-gear with speed kit on everything,

just as I had as a  mono, the plane flies 153 mph.  ...................


Cliff...useful info.  I am in the middle of a longish renovation  and upgrade 
(Autopilot etc) and speed kit so will not have the opportunity  to do any 
tests for some time.

Thanks   Patrick (Tri gear  914)
