I know of a chap in colombia who made his wings wet....the gas penetrated everything and he had to scrap the wings.

That must of been heartbreaking; so much work ruined 😱

I am thinking more along the lines of tank inserts...

Walter Binder a early Europa builder from Germany had wing tanks as I understand it. He also was first to extend the tailwheel before the XS model came with the same. In the past I searched his Europa on the internet and found a few photos. Ivan was impressed with his workmanship and ideas ack in the day (90's)

I found one photo of D-EPWB though I am sure one could find others. He had used it for towing gliders as he manufactures EP28/29 gliders.

I don't know much about his Europa but it is a interesting one. In one of the old factory publications Ivan said Walter knew exactly what he wanted and made those changes as he built it.
