Hi all,
I believe one of the very early Europa builder did this, I think his name
was Walter Binder. He added wing tanks, a glider tow hook, put the flap
retract mechanism inside the wing and did some modifications to the
windscreen / cowl area. He was mostly involved with gliders and was
interested in drag reduction. I am sure that other forum members that have
been around longer than me can provide more accurate information, but I know
that this guy has never participated in the Europa community.

Hallo Mattias and others, who are interested in this.
Walter Binder made this with a " Classic Europa Monowheel ".
I suppose, it's much easier to install tanks in foam wings than now with the
ready build up wings.
You can contact him under:
Walter Binder Motzorenbau GmbH
