Wow,

I'm sure they give many of these out and not sure what it means but I just got Outstanding Homebuilt award in the mail today from Sun-N-Fun!  Gold Rush my tri-gear impressed someone this year at the show. I just used it to fly there and not drive last Thursday. Figured I might as well have it judged since it didn't cost anything. 

If there was a way to have it re-regiseterd as a light sport I would for sure keep her. She fly's better than every with her new 912ULS and prop.

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]-->  Jeff,

 It's about time you had her judged.  All she needed was some  TLC.  Nearly 10 years old and still a looker.  You got the award  because, she is great to look at, to sit in, to fly, and it was a joy for me to  fly with you and share a flight surrounded by your craftsmanship.  

 Well done.

  

 Regards,

 Bud Yerly

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 is testing and get the stall speed down, do some weight reduction maybe, de-register it and get it re-licensed as an LSA. A little fudge I know but just a thought...

Interesting idea Troy,

I got the stall speed down by 9 knots on my Long EZ with vortex generators, much crisper handling at low speeds too.
