For those that are still in the building cycle, or even those wishing to ret
rofit, would it be worth doing the same fix to the bottom tubes?

rous 912S powered Europa's says the same thing - mine is the fastest 912S he
 has flown. Flat out at a 1000 feet I get 137 knots. I have heard similar re
ports from other high tops. Doesn't make sense as cross section is larger, b
ut aeronautics is a black art. When I am in a regular Europa I feel like I a

t I am always bending my neck to see out the windshield. The extra 2.5 inche
s or so is really worth while.
