I'd like to start this thread as the go to place for those coming to or at SNF.  A similar thread proved useful at Oshkosh last summer. Just post a reply to add your information to this thread.



An informal get together each day at Custom Flight Creations booth N055 at 11 am will give us a chance to meet and chat.



Ira Rampil is coordinating the annual Engineering Meeting for Thursday evening.



Steve Pitt from the Europa Club will be in attendance with the latest copy of the Europa Flyer.



I will have the most current version of the spreadsheet of Europa owners and builders available at Bud's booth.  Stop by and check and update your contact information.



Europas coming known at this time (Saturday, 4/11) are:



Ira Rampil N224XS

John Wigney N262WF HBC

Kevin Klinefelter N211KA  

Jim & Heather Butcher N241BW  HBC

Ira,



I hope someone will "Record the Minutes" and distribute appropriate 

pictures to those of us not able to attend.

  ....oh, ... and don't worry if one or two of the servers should happen 

to appear in the background!

Hi Nigel!



We will do our best 



These meetings generally focus on the fellowship of the type club.

There are of course engineering discussions related to specific Europa mods

and best practices. Then there are general discussions regarding stress and 

strain and specific applications of construction, particularly cantilever structures.



Cheers,

A portion of the 2015 Europa Engineering Meeting. We filled two tables.

Bud had an extensive Agenda which touched on Staffing, parts availability, Modes, used aircraft market. LSA market projections etc.  I'll leave it to him

to fill in the details after the show

We left SNF Friday to beat forecast weather and got as far as Louisville, KY.  Saturday morning made the last leg home.



It was great seeing everyone and having time to just chat and share experiences.



We camped in HBC and had a great time! This was our first time flying and arrived Monday just before the weather. There was no traffic so the arrival was easy.



HBC camping is awesome! Mary Jane and her crew are outstanding, friendly and helpful. We had heard about the Friday dinner but had no idea of the breakfast offerings or the evening meals.



The showers could use some hooks and shelves to put stuff on, but they are adequate and I only had to wait a few minutes one morning. Heather never had to wait.



We had a total of 4 Europas (3 monos!) in HBC and two other owners drove in. We all hung out and had a great time.



We'll be back and certainly in HBC. 



Jim & Heather
