Subject: Re: Europa-List: ULPowered Europa cleared for flight
After some environmental issues on Saturday, BWUP was moved today to Lydeway
field (thanks goes to Nigel Charles & LAA for giving permission) and took to
the air for the first time in 7 years. Reborn with a ULPower UL260iS engine
and Woodcomp variable pitch propellor BWUP had 2 flights totalling 45
minutes. Both flights saw temperatures and pressures within normal limits
with no undue vibrations or problems arising. Phil the test pilot commented
on how smooth the engine was and removal of the cowls after each flight
revealed no issues either. More flights hopefully this week if weather and
work commitments allow.
