Pete,


why do you think they (Naca vents) are useless?


I have been happy with them:


- it was easy and straightforward to install them

- they are light weight

- they produce fresh air to the cockpit very well when open and they 
won=B4t
when closed and are fully adjustable

- easy to operate

- they are looking nice


One limitation: we call that plastic The end stops are weak and will 
broken
easily. 


When it is fully open, do not try to open it more and vice versa!


It is easy to forget to what direction you should turn the knob ' so I 
have
made an arrow sign to show how to open and close it.


Terveisin,

Hi Steve,

Europa certainly did supply the metal ends in days of old.  I got mine 
from
them and they have never given any trouble since (12 yrs).  I only wish 
the
company would stop supplying duff bits when they must surely be aware of 
so
many complaints.  Those useless NACA side vents are another expensive 
and
useless item that I believe still come with the new kits.

Pete

Europa Company supply these and whilst acknowledging the risk of them 
being
more secure at least you do not worry about the doors detaching on the
ground in strong winds.

Gidday, 

I have had my door strut hydraulic struts on and off so many times, and
co-incidentally arm really glad the end caps, the ball joint cups are
plastic. So, when the time comes I reckon it might be worthwhile 
replacing
them, or having spares. I have seen photos on EuropaOwners of Dan Bish's
album of a metal cup with a locking cir-clip pin  rather than the 
plastic
ones. He is unsure where he got them from, maybe Europa, and so I am
wondering if anyone knows where these can be sourced please??
