Hi All
I am interested in the US approach to aerobatic authorisation for the
Europa. From the discussions it does not seem to include any proof that the
aeroplane is strong enough. From this side of the pond the theory seems to
be that if you can demonstrate a manoeuvre in the first 40 hours without
ripping the wings off then all is ok. Am I missing some hidden point?
I did do some aeros with Pete Clark in G-YURO on the demo flight in 1992(?),
but subsequently discovered that the Europa would not be cleared in the UK,
as I understood, because of differences in construction from the
demonstrator.
Pete
