As dave says=2C the firewall shouldn't be a problem. You don't need a carb
heater=2C but Transport Canada does. You also need an ELT and First Aid kit
. You can take a look at my Skydrive heater installation.
But can't you fly it on the American registration for a while=2C like a yea
r=2C it gives you time to make any mods.

Subject: Europa-List: Firewall material vs Canada "fireproof material" airw
orthiness requirement
Hello to you all
I'm well progressing on my way to importing an Europa "classic" from the US
A.
I have had a few chats with the ppl in charge of inspections of amateur-bui
lt aircrafts at Transport Canada (http://www.md-ra.com) about their require
ment for the firewall be made of a "fireproof material"=2C like stainless o
r galvanized steel.
However=2C he also stated that I could use any other material that has been
used on any other Canada-airworthy Europa !
So=2C the question to all CANADIAN Europa owners: what is your Europa firew
all made of ?
Also=2C do all the Canadian Europas have carb heat on their Rotax engines
? If so=2C which origin ? My 912 currently does not have one...
Regards=2C
