Kim Prout put me on to a slick way to add weight to the Europa tail. He showed
me a short section of pipe of brass rod that was sized just right. He pulled
off his TPs and slipped this weighted pipe inside the tube that the TPs mount
on.
I did this with an alum pipe filled with melted tire weights. I made two 5.5 lb
pipes and moved my CG one inch aft. I am now fly this way and think that it
is easier to land.

The next question would be, has anyone come up with a safe, secure and
simple method of adding weight in the tail.
