Craig,
I don't know what your plans are regarding painting, but now is a good
time to paint the inverted fuselage half, after you have
finished the sockets etc. It is ten times easier than waiting for
completion. But if someone else is going to do the paint job
then just forget my suggestion. Also, Neville had suggested to re-inforce
the exterior area aroundthe sockets with a
multiple layer of bid. I assumed that maybe an early Europa had developed
cracks in the skin from hard landings.

Thanks all for your input, as my cradle supports at 4 points, and it is
nice and clear of the socket site I will proceed with the top off.

Mine was about 40 hours of work with the top NOT bonded on! I cant
imagine attempting such a lay-up with the top on. I originally called Europa
about this. Andy said so long as you have a cradle with very good support
there should be no problem.
Lots of photos on this chapter in my little area of Europa Owners.
