 When you visit the plane you should be accompanied by a fellow 
builder/owner.
It is hard to find A&Ps that know anything about fiberglass.  The trick in 
the Europa 
is that much of the structural work is inacessible once complete so what 
you have to
go on is photos during contruction and the quality of the non-hidden 
workmanship.
I would also think that many hours of flying (>50) is somewhat reassuring.

Hi all,
        I am considering the purchase of a pre-built and
currently flying Europa XS.  I was curious if there are
any "gotchas" I should look out for, and if you have any idea what
kind of support I might expect from the company and possibly
builders/owners here in the US (northeast).
Any comments or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

-Dj
