I am inclined to think that the wheel leg fairings on the TG are really only
cosmetic in value - however this is considerable and does away to a large
extent with the rather 'spindly' appearance. - which has been adversely
commented on by friends with other earoplanes.
Mind you Europa is not unique in having this feature which looks inelegant
and incapable of supporting the imposed dynamic forces on landing in
particular.
Anyway, I have gone ahead and virtually completed my speed kit fit with the
supplied, very poor quality and badly finished pieces. Lots of filling,
sanding and painting now needed.
