you dont go over MTOW :)

Hi (all those who like flying with a good company!)
I am happy to let you know we had today "Europa 4-seater flight".
That has been my dream since I started building 1999.
Actually, there were my daughters Tuuli 8 years and Merete 5 years.
Me and my wife omboard with full thank TOW was 656 kgs (1443 lbs).
My MTOW is 658 kgs (1450 lbs).
Our CofG was well between limits (almost center because added Airmaster
prop hub 7 kgs (15,4 lbs)).
Everything went WELL and there were not any problems.
Children had fun - Europa is a real family machine!
I am going to have a 4-place intercom next.
My Europa will be permitted (in this country) for 4-seater (actually 2+2),
max 60 kgs (132 lbs) on the back seat (with certified seat belts).
So, Europa XS is almost like that French fun machine Dyn Aeros 4s...
Raimo OH-XRT
