assistance in getting the Trio kit into your aircraft, please contact me 
off line.

  One of the best altitude hold (dual axis) autopilots is the Trio Pilot 
Pro.  Excellent full details are on the Trio web site.  

  I was in correspondence with Paul Mitchell, the UK agent for Trio last 
December and he was in touch with Andy Draper of the UK Light Aircraft 
Association which were in the process of giving it approval for the 
Europa.  The relevant correspondence copied to me was:

  Hi Paul,
   
  Europa are on the verge of launching Mod 76 which covers the altitude 
hold aspect (awaiting flight test results) and the wing leveller part is 
covered by the recently introduced Mod 75.  Mod 75 effectively replaces 
SM10507 which has been around for a while now.  They've opted for 
in-house mods to cover the rest of the world.
   
  Mods 75 and 76 will be treated as Facory Options now, but both will 
require inspection checks and flight test autorised by LAA Engineering 
issued PFRC (as laid down in the mod leaflets).

  Andy,
  What is the currant position in fitting a PP into a Europa.Is it a 
standard mod yet.
  Any info gratefully received.
  Paul


  Note the reference to in-house mods for the rest of the world.

  You will find it is a very neat and light weight unit at modest cost 
compared to the competition.  However, I do not speak from experience.  
I plan to purchase it probably later this year after it has been 
approved by the LAA.

    Hi Folks,

    I'm still considering a panel refurb - out with the pneumatic system 
and in with an EFIS - I really like the Dynon Skyview.

    Anyone installed autopilot servos? I think I've seen some roll 
servos installed under the seat but I've not seen pitch servo 
installation.

    Does anyone have any drawings/photos?

    Regards,
    Martin Tuck
