Tim,
If you have the plastic ends to your struts then Europa have metal ends
as replacements. Mine work fine after the change.

Steve

You Devil You !!
Hi Nev.
Any news on the tin filler pipe for the classic ?
I am looking for real world advice about the cockpit door gas struts,
mine is the very original system and now the passenger door strut is
starting to pop off so I need to fix it, what is the best way forward ?
regards
Tim

For those who expressed an interest in the Beringer system weight
saving, I asked the UK agent, Brad Goodfellow of Pioneer Aircraft UK
(through whom I have bought a kit) if he could set out the
manufacturer's calculations for the weight saving. I don't have the
comparisons to hand that others have posted on the forum to do a
comparison, but the figures that Brad gave me and asked me to post on
the forum are as follows (in kg) and Brad was keen to emphasise that his
experience of Beringer is that they are meticulous in calculating their
weight saving statistics, with a large chunk of the savings here coming
---From a heavy inner tube which is now redundant:
