It should be a 914UL (non certified) as all the engines supplied by
Europa were for experimential aircraft. The certified engines were
installed in certified airplanes, the Katana is one example.
I would say its "other non road compression-ignition engine" but thats
just an assumption on my part. I do not know what customs want or need.
One other thing, here in the states, when a certified engine, such as a
Lycoming IO360 is installed in a experimential airplane then the engine
is considered "Experimential" and no longer a certified engine. by the
FAA.

Subject: Europa-List: Urgent Help with Customs Officials
Hi Guys, still trying to get our europa through customs at
Jacksonville. I am trying to finish filling in the EPA form. I have put
in the obvious stuff like date of build and serial number but I have to
choose a box to check under certified and non certified engines. Well I
think un certified is the way to go but it is a sheer guess since I do
not have any paperwork from Rotax saying it is certified. So, if I go
for uncertified is it =93other non road compression- ignition engines.
See 40CFR part 89 or parts 1039 and 1068=94 ?? This is a Rotax 914
engine. It started life in our Europa and has always been there.. I just
do not know what to list it as on the EPA form 3520-21.
I would really appreciate any help forthcoming.
Thanks
Alan
