True, but the 200 series of MGS resins/hardeners are a very safe choice for
any experimental aircraft.

The properties for MGS 2XX resin/hardener are actually a bit better than
the Aeropoxy spec'd for the Europa. As Graham pointed out, MGS is used on
several certified and experimental aircraft. It is less viscous than most
systems, too, so wet out is much easier.

There was recently a HUGE problem getting MGS into the states due to hazmat
classification, though. Everything got held up in Canada (all US bound MGS
comes through Canada), and Spruce shipments were running 6+ months late in
some instances. All should be well by now, but it's worth a check before
you order.
