I didn't. ..but I wasn't looking ....just having a good time.

I replaced my port aileron crank inspection cover with a metal one and put a 1/4-20 bolt on there that fits the tripod adapter available for the Gopro. Works great.

Hi,
I second what Dave says about the starter. The heavy duty one that now comes on the 912S hits the classic fwf mount.
An alternative to the soft start system that has worked fine for me for 4 yea ...

I agree with Bob. Preflight.... Just before throttle up, check the doors...but
if you want some cheap insurance too put a switch on each of the rear shoot bolts that puts a ground on a bright red LED ...

I tried all the things suggested except the SWR check...no access to one yet. It made no difference running the Ipad and Stratus on self batteries. I check the integrity of all grounds and coax connec ...

Hi All,
I know this has been discussed before on the forum. I have looked til I bleary eyed and can't find the answer I'm looking for.
When I key the mike I have started getting a loud static noise ...

With your beautiful Europa, it was sure to win one of the categories...can't believe you hadn't already. Glad you didn't enter it in 2012..lol
Maybe you can put some vortex generators on it like Bud ...

Congratulations to Bud Yerly. Bud clearly deserves the honor of the gold cup for all the support he gives to the Europa builders and flyers here in the US. Without Bud at the helm here in the US, I wo ...

I know this is a long shot. I have already emailed the factory a short while ago, awaiting their response.
I wanted to ask if anyone knows the whereabouts of possible new unused hoses for a classic ...

Hi All,
Not the best week for me as I am scheduled to work, but may be able to get off. Probably chilly then too but I'll take what I can get. Haven't got to fly much this year due to rain every day ...

Hi Jeff,
I hate to see you part with GR. I wish very much there was some way I could take her. I had the awesome privilege to ride shotgun in her at Rough River a few years ago in the fly over with ...

Wow Fred,
I know you said you used Mr Bowmans molds but that looks real impressive. Wonder what a set of those would cost to have some talented soul, with more time than me, to have made?? If you get ...

Hi All,
I have a 912S and recently have noticed a trend of higher exhaust gas temps on the rear two cylinders. I know that CHT will read higher on the two rear cylinders but not sure if that same rea ...

Hi All,
Does anyone have any monowheel speed fairings of any kind they no longer need? Perhaps you have converted to trigear and would like to part with them or have molds to make some. The factory w ...

Hi Cleve,
I searched every term possible and could not find it. Perhaps a link would help.

Hi Chris,
I will reply as I have a classic install but admit I won't be much help. I used an engine monitor that went out of business, called Audio Flight Avionics. It came with two threaded (5mm?) C ...

Hi Graeme,
Very nice picture. I love pix of places that I've never been but would like to. Ah...wonderlust.

Hi Jeff,
Congratulations on your success. Sounds like a wonderful flying machine you have. I too have a Monowheel Classic, but with a 912S and a ground adjustable warp drive. I was just curious abou ...

Yes, Graham, very nice pictures. I'd hate to have to cut the grass along the edge of those needles. Wink

Fred, the pic of Southhampton also takes me back. This was my very last port of call in March of ...
