hello all

I'm new to this group - considering buying a taildragger Europa to fly
from a farm strip NE England.

Can anyone tell me if the XS baggage space is big enough for 2 folding
bicycles (Brompton or similar)?

Thanks

William Bliss

Hi William,
In the good old days when I had a mono we used to carry two 'Dahon' folding
bikes together with camping gear. The bikes weighed in at 28 lbs each so
you needed to watch weight and CG issues. They used to sit either side of
the tunnel immediately against the back of the fuel tank. One wheel of each
bike fitted down into the pits on either side of the tunnel.

Go for it

Pete

Hi William,
I regularly take 2 lightweight ( 7.5 Kg each ) Dahon folding bikes in the back of my XS mono,
All the Best,
Paddy
