I have not seen any discussion of Oshkosh.  Is anyone else going?  Lynne and I will be there for most of the week.  If any of the Europa Group attends, my cell number is 941-875-5684.  Give me a buzz and maybe we can get a beer.

Jim,



I plan be there from Sunday (late) through Saturday.  I'm driving as I ended up with a useless bureaucrat in the FAA handling my paperwork.  I have a Europa ready to fly but no Airworthiness Certificate & Limitations Letter and this guy says it will be weeks before he can get the paperwork submitted.  Normally only takes about 15 - 20 minutes to fill out the form on the computer and send it off to OKC and they usually turn it around in about an hour.  Not Stan.  He has a stack of 26 applications on his desk that he can't seem to get around to doing and I'm at the bottom of the stack.

It's really my fault though.  When I put the aircraft up for repair and modification last year I set the docs aside in a "safe" place and now I can't find them.  AAARRRRGGGHHH!!!

My cell number is in the signature block.  I hope to see a bunch of Europaphiles there some time.

OK Bob-  

  

I have your cell number and you should have mine.  I have not sent the paperwork to the DAR yet.  My plane is done but I am still dealing with cooling issues (Jabiru) and don't need to have him in until I get it all fixed.  I significantly increased my output air volume last week but will now need to see how the oil temps go.   

  

Are you using the FAA or a DAR?  I am told the DAR may be much faster.

Jim,



Go with a DAR!  There are FAA guys who are great but it's pretty slim odds you'll get one.  The rest are worthless bureaucrats and oxygen thieves.

I should have gone back to my DAR to get my replacment paperwork.  He'd only charge $100 to do replacement paperwork.  His charge for the inspection was $450 and worth it.  The FAA is free but who knows when you'll have the inspection and paperwork.

Good luck with your cooling issues.  It takes work but can eventually be resolved.  I recently read an article on line about what it took to get cooling working for a Jab.  They made up a fiberglass shroud.  I found it, not on line, in the August Kitplanes, "Down to Earth" column by Amy Laboda: "The plenum: anything but one size fits all."  Cooling a Kit Fox IV with a Jab and an RV-10.  Check it out.

Guys,



I plan fly in each day, weather permitting.  My cell is 262 993 4483.

In past years we have met at the Home Builders HQ.  Does anyone recall

what time?



BTW.  I had the local FAA inspector do my aircraft.  I had a good

experience, he was prompt and helpful.  Just call me lucky I guess.

Paul,



We usually met around 1100 hrs at HB HQ to go to lunch.



The FAA guy who did my Repairman's Certificate at the Ft.Worth FSDO was great.  He was a homebuilder.  Tommy had a good guy recently to do a replacement Airworthiness & Letter at the Dallas FSDO.  Took 6 hours because the guy was a one-handed, one-finger typist, but he had it the same day.  My recent experience with two FAA reps, one at the Dallas FSDO and one at the Ft.Worth FSDO was very bad.  It's a crap shoot with the FAA.

John,

Sorry not to be there this year. Have a great time. Always remember our flight in your beast dodging F111 on final. Told to hold at 600ft on final! Great flying!

Don't buy too much!



Maybe another year.



Cheers,

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]-->  Jim, Lynn and all,

 I won't make it to Osh with 12 AY almost finished with the repairs  from Sun 'n Fun and six planes in the shop now to turn around.  We are  going to hunker down and keep turning out airplanes.  Hope you all have a  great time and good weather.

Hi Bud- 

  

We are in NC on our way to Oshkosh.  I didn't figure you would go.  I know it is busy in the shop and it is also a very expensive proposition.  If anyone there wants to order a kit, I'll get a deposit and get the information to you.  I don't think Europa has ever gone for a display at Oshkosh; I think SNF has been about it.   

  

Keep in touch!  Will e-mail you all of the orders from there. 

  

Jim
