Rowland,
Did mention the existence of this Europa on the list some 6 weeks ago,
I saw it when it was rigged up for final checks at Popham it had a very
distinctive red/white striped tail.
Karim described this was for enhanced visibility whilst flying across snow
covered areas.
Guess you were so busy building, you missed the conversation :-)
Later
Paul.

Subject: Re: RED STRIPPED EUROPA
Hi,
i was talking to the wife of the guy with the red stripped europa this
afternoon. I believe its Mr hainz(not sure if i spelt it right). Yup ,the
wife says he hopes to go and fly it in canada when its snowing. So the red
stripes are for better visibilty of the europa..
