        Hi Raimo


        OK got it!


        I only wish I was as lucky of an "idiot" as you!


        I once saw a race between a 15 speed bicycle and a AN-2 down the runway 
@
Sussex New Jersey USA, the AN-2 lost and there was not much wind!


        I think if perhaps you got chummy with a friendly "black hole",
you may in fact be able to squeeze an AN-2 in the back of your
Europa.


        What an experience, enjoy.
