I would suggest that you give a quick E-mail to the guys at Andair.  I 
saw the Andair rep at Oskosh.  They had a facia plate made up just for the 
Europa and can fix you up with what you need. They are very familiar with the 
plane. 

The FAA doesn't approve parts for experimental airplanes, that's why 
they're experimental.  You must do all of your work so that the plane is 
built in an airworthy manner to standards good enough to ensure safety for 
yourself and any others you may happen to crash into (onto?)

Subject: Andair valve   
gascolator


Greetings all,


I am planning to have the fuel tank selector handle recessed into the 
flat

top of the centre console in my Tri-Gear, rather than the standard 
position

on the console's port side.  Andair makes the valve, extension 
and handle, I

understand.  Further, I intend to install the Andair Mini 
Gascolator.   As

this would be modifications of the factory issued building instructions, 
the

approval process in Norway would be simplified if I can refer to the 
same

modifications already having been approved by FAA, PFA or similar.


I would therefore appreciate it very much if those of you who have 
done

either (or both) of these modifications on your Mono or Tri-Gear and 
already

have obtained the FAA, PFA or similar approval, can advise me of that 
fact

including your registration (tail) number.


If anyone would also kindly advise me of what specific part 
names/numbers

you ordered for the valve, extension and handle, as well as for the 
Mini

Gascolator (ref. the different connector options), it would assure that 
I

order the correct parts.  Any particular advice regarding 
these

modifications would also be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!
