>>> Rick,
Does anyone have an idea of what number Europa the Europa factory is
shipping these days? I notice that many of the members who list on this site
use #??? for which Europa they have.
>>> They're just approaching number 1000...
Does anyone have a data base of completed and flying Europa's, not
necessarily each persons name and photo, but just an idea how many Europa's
are flying? and which versions.
>>> Please see the Europa Club web site at www.europaclub.org.uk
Should I 'ass u me' that as each upgrade and modification is made to the
Europa aircraft that all aircraft produced after this upgrade or mod, is
incorporated into the aircraft. There are a lot of great ideas and
suggestions on this list for meaniful improvements but how many are accepted
by the factory...any way to tell? For example the new door support mod that
is being discussed on the site recently, when will this show up as a part of
the aircraft being produced by Europa? or will it always be a mod we as
customers will always have to build.
>>> If there is a 'mandatory' mod, that is built into all subsequent kits
and the owners of previous kits are notified. If there is an 'optional' mod
(e.g. fuel drains in most countries are not mandatory), it is simply
advertised an optional extra. On top of the factory's mods, there are also
some commercially available mods (e.g. Graham Singleton's tailwheel and
firewall mods), there are the Europa Club mods (details free to all members)
covering popular enhancements like autopilots and capacitance fuel gauges,
there are individual mods that some owners are willing to share with the
community, and finally there are individual mods for which the owners guard
the secrets like they were state secrets (no names, no pack drill...).
Cheers,
Jeremy
