I did the engineering stress analysis of the Flyer BRS installation.  It was 
abandoned
as it compromised the airframe and added mass.

If the Europa Mk3 was to be designed a BRS type system could be included with 
lower
mass and fewer compromises.  

I provided content for the Flyer mag editions which chronicled the build, 
authored
by Miles.

I intent to write a piece for the Europa magazine one of these days.  I am 
currently
re-stressing the aircraft  and have a wing test rig and XS wing to perform
a test to failure.
