One of our members has applied for his PFA permit to test on an aircraft
he purchased half built. Francis has turned this down as he has not
confirmed that his early aircraft has been fitted with:-

MOD 6 Tailplane rib/t.e. close-out bracket All aircraft
MOD 12 Rudder pedal stiffening All aircraft
MOD 14 Fuel tank spacers All aircraft
MOD 15 Forward lift pin/fuselage stiffening All aircraft
MOD 17 Rudder pedal guides All aircraft
MOD 18 Pitot positioning All aircraft

On later aircraft the instructions are included in the build manual but
I cannot identify what each the mod was.

As these mods are no longer listed on the Europa(2004) site (or
SteveD's) it is proving very difficult to get copies of them to find out
exactly what they are. I think I know what Mods 12, 14 and 15 are but I
may be wrong.

Does anyone have copies they could let us have or at least a detailed
description to confirm what it is?

Hi Ian,
From memory.....
Mod 6, Bid bracket between tailplane outboard rib and closeout, in current Manual.
Mod 12, Steel tubes Reduxed inside rudder pedal tubes, in current Manual.
Mod 14, 1/2'' ply / Bid ''tee'' / alloy angle spacer between rear face of seatback and forward face of tank, in current Manual.
Mod16, 1/4'' foam / Bid '' top hat stiffener'', vertically from thigh support to door sill, in current Manual.
Mod 17, ? Might be the Tufnel blocks at the forward end of the tunnel, to keep the rudder cable away from the Undercarriage Frame, in current Manual.
Mod 18, move the Pitot from next to the aileron belcrank inspection panel, further aft and outboard [ to the position of the XS wing ] along with the Static.
All these Mods will be visible, even on a completed airframe, have the owner contact me, I can put his Inspector right.
Cheers,
Nev.
