Where are you going in the USA?



Bud Yerly is in Florida.



If coming out to California I can give training in my Europa XS and if you ar on the large side I have one lady qualified in my plane.



Drop me a line off-line if interested.

William,Just a thought for you based on what I did. I flew a Dimond DA-20 for 10 hours before my Europa. I remember when landing that long wing thinking that if it had a wing two feet shorter it would be much easier to land. The Europa is just that and super easy to fly and land.

Will,

I agree with Jeff.  I did 4 hours of training on a DA-20 before I flew my tri-gear Europa.  Very similar takeoff and landing speeds and character as well as handling in the traffic pattern.  I flew with US Aviation here in Denton.  I don’t know if they still have the DA-20s or not.  I know they have DA-40s & 42s and a crap load of 150s, 152s & 172s.



The Europa tri-gear is super easy to fly and land.

OK thanks

Bud is a good idea - I will ask him to start with.  Failing that a DA20

Did you use a test pilot?  Or did you just get in and fly having done the training?
