Congratulations Peter from 'down under' here in New Zealand. Great to hear
of another Europa flying the nest.
If any Europa builder is coming our way please contact me for a fly around
the New Zealand countryside. Just been down to the World Gliding
Championships in Omarama with ZK-TIM and everyone was asking me where the
glider wings were!! Unfortunately they were not flying that day in respect
to a German glider pilot having a fatal accident the day before.
Happy Christmas to you all and all the best for the new year.
Cheers,
Tim
ZK-TIM Monowheel classic 150 hours and loving it!
