Terry,
You wrote, "If I lose my airplane medical and continue flying as a self launched
glider pilot, can I then fly the long wing Europa AIRPLANE legally?"
The answer is NO. To operate without a medical your Europa must be registered
as a motorglider and have the long wings fitted.
A pilot with ASEL (and no self launch glider rating) can only operate a Europa
with the long wings fitted if the Op Lim does not specify the two
configurations.
But then he must have a Medical.
Certainly the motorglider configuration is a nice airplane with the engine
running
- John Hurst preferred that for long cross country flights!
