Hi all,



To whom it may concern. Here is a message from the Europa List.

An aircraft manufacturer jus issued an AD demanding that any Evans 

water-free glycol coolant be removed from Rotax engines, due to fire hazard.

Here is a link to the AD :

Has anyone hear of issues with the new coolant being used in Rotax 914s? 

This is part of a message I received from a fellow Europa pilot.



"...I just heard today that the new waterless fluid is flammable. I saw 

it burn today/ Stemme has issued an urgent SB to remove the stuff - I 

heard 2 fatalities of coolant leak catching fire. The 50 - 50 solution 

will not burn. Oh well! Have you heard anything about this? I also 

discovered that the 100% solution of antifreeze burns too..."
