Hi! Sven
I have an MT Propellers produced Noise Cert produced as a result of
thorough tests taken by them on my Jabiru 3300 powered Europa Trike with
their 3 blade CS Propeller. The German Inspector I submitted to at
Munchen Osnabrook only accepted it "under protest " since he said it
should be produced or validated by the British CAA being a UK
registration. I only this morning contacted a Junior rank woman in the
CAA who started off by saying it would probably require a UK conducted
test for the CAA to provide the validation.! This stinks of "jobs for
the boys " culture and I feel you should establish just what the Dutch
CAA will accept prior to getting in any deeper !
I will be making lots of loud noises if having flown to Straubing and
spent three days getting the necessary tests done, having a German
Certificate made by a German Manufacturer only to find it is bloody
worthless here in the UK or for that matter anywhere else !!!??
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG Europa MKI/Jabiru 3300

Subject: Europa-List: Noise Statement wanted
<svendenboer@quicknet.nl>
All,
Dutch CAA/FAA is requesting an official noise statement for my aircraft.
Noise Statement from Europa club is not recognized and the penalty is in
NL,
same landing charges as a Piper 28.(!@#%$!*)
2 possibilities to counter this:
A: Get a noise measuremnt by an approved organisation/company
B: Get a copy of an official Noise Statement from one of the EASA/JAR
countries or the US/Canada.
It needs to be a stament from a similar type of aircraft, in this case:
Europa XS
Rotax 912S engine
Warpdrive prop
Who can help me out?
Mail or fax your noisestatement, eternal greatfullnes will be your
reward.
Best Regards,
Sven den Boer
