Hi Bob,
Raimo,
Good work! Great shop/hanger/bar&grill! How 'bout some pics of the
inside?
Bob Borger
Thanks for pushing me upp, again!
Inside? All the bits and things are there but not in the perfect order
so far.
They will be, during the next weeks (that is my honest wish!).
I asked today my Wife (Marke!) just to lift the doors upp and here you
are - are you happy now Bob?
Later you will get more detailed photos about the secrets inside if you
like.
BTW,
My wife and me will have the 10th Wedding Day 15th of August 2010.
It is The Sunday, of course!
Accidentally, we will have here (EFTP) same time the biggest air show in
the country including a real flying Spitfire and so.
Sunday, 6=B4clock pm (1500 zulu or GMT time) we will have here at EFTP
*** a little*** festival.
That is partly for our 10th WD, also partly for that new hanger (hangar
I would like to write).
***
And mostly because that wonderful life we all (all!) are living just
now, are not we!
***
That is why you ALL (I mean you all in the the EUROPA community) are
invited!
Just let me know if you are coming just 4 weeks before (that is VERY
mportant)!
All the food and some beers and just a drop a wine will be free.
During that time in Finland, all the beautifully flying boys will find a
free bed to stay their night or even more, easily.
I will accommondate all the possible Europa Female Pilots - I am sure
they all are pretty.
***
PLEASE WELCOME (and please remember let me know IN TIME !!!)

Terveisin, Raimo Toivio

Europa Community - All of You !
I wanna share this moment instantly with all of you around the globe.
I am writing this time 0330 AM - I came just from The EFTP.
Last time when I have been airborne and a pilot was 13th of November
2009.
That was because OH-XRT (and many other poor planes here) lost her
hangar space in The EFTP.
That was a serious business!
I decided to make my own hangar and I call it The Europa[e] Hall !
That is why I have been really busy during last weeks!
It was completed tonight! Look at the attached photo! If you check it
carefully, you will notice Europa=B4s official logo is slightly modified
in this case!
Inside - there is a little bar, grill, service shop, alarm, safety
cams via internet recording ability, some aviation gizmos, nose artist
girls and other necessary equipments.
It=B4s size is just compact 9 x 12 m2.
My wife certainly planted some rose bushes beside it!
Because it is on a little hill, it is equipped also with an electric
tow machine to pull RT inside (she is so fat lady that even for me it is
almost too hard task to pull her inside manually).
I trailered today OH-XRT from her home hangar from Lempaala to The
EFTP and had also my first aviation session today.
I was thrilled - I have been grounded over seven months. Could I fly
any more (that wild tail wheeled mono)?
Rotax fired upp immediately.
Everything was ok.
I taxied about 15 minutes and it felt so good!
After I did some touch and goes and it felt also good or even better
if possible.
I did some of my best landings - Europa is really landable from the
first touch to the final stop using less than 300 metres runway.
After that I had a local flight 50 minutes.
That seven months meant nothing - I felt as I had been airborne
yesterday.
Obviously flying Europa has gone to my backbone and more or less to my
ass too!
I feel COMPLETELY happy now!
You there around the globe and still building: build it fast - just do
it and complete it ! What sooner that better - it is really worth of it!
