Hi Ian

Following up on your wheel Mod below, have LAA approve dit yet and, if so, are you happy sharing the details so I can submit it as a repeat Mod?

Kind regards
RCC

PS Any update on LAA review of the spinning trials?

Klaus,
I have too just finished my installation in my motor glider G-CBHI but with the operating lever on the control column. Still waiting for the UK modification approval from the LAA.

Regards

Ian Cook

Just finished the installation of the Beringer wheel/brake kit into my Europa mono wheel, OE-CKD:



I use Beringer's hand operated master brake cylinder (MP-004.3) with remote mounted brake fluid reservoir, mounted on the centre console (same position as the original);
no modifications to the slot and holes for the fixing screws on the centre console are needed!

(some minor modifications on the master brake cylinder are needed to fit into the centre console)
The Beringer kit came within one week after ordering, is superbly made, works perfectly and telephone Support from Beringer is excellent!

They use the AirTrac 7-6:00 tire (without tube), which comes already mounted on the wheel together with the brake.
Total weight saving: 2,5kg - I weighted all Europa parts: 11,8kg - all Beringer parts: 9,3kg; both with AirTrac tire

It took me about 6 hours to install the kit.

blue sky and tail wind,

Klaus

Still all with the LAA would you believe, I despair at times!  I am happy to share details.
