Mike,
Wait a little longer to hear the outcome of the survey and what EUROPA Compa
ny stipulate. Probably =98definitely=99 will be the answer.

m. It is also faster than the regular Europa - Bud Yerly, who has built nume
rous 912S powered Europa's says the same thing - mine is the fastest 912S he
has flown. Flat out at a 1000 feet I get 137 knots. I have heard similar re
ports from other high tops. Doesn't make sense as cross section is larger, b
ut aeronautics is a black art. When I am in a regular Europa I feel like I a
m flying a 1957 Porsche Speedster with the top up. The room may be there, bu
t I am always bending my neck to see out the windshield. The extra 2.5 inche
s or so is really worth while.

or bottom arms. I don't have a manual handy - has anyone else noticed that t

eight of the Europa?
