Hello all,
Europa ZK-MEE Xs mono, kit no 613, Rotax 912s / Airmaster VP prop, fina
lly made its first flight today on a beautiful clear and calm day in the so
uth of New Zealand at Taieri airfield. It flew beautifully hands off and do
esn't seem to need any aileron or rudder trim. Hard to descend and land as
it just wanted to keep flying! Empty weight is 866 pounds.
Many thanks to Tim Ward, Nev Eyre, Bud Yerly, John and Roger at Europa
and others who have helped me many times during the build.
Regards to all and happy flying,
Keith Hickling,
New Zealand.
