Dear Europaphiles,



because it was so nice at the Bad Dürkheim fly-in last weekend, I just want to let you know, that I'm planning to attend this event. Yet a couple of Europa pilots have announced their coming as well.



Would be great to meet you there (again) 



Cheers

Roland

Hi Roland!



Well. I've plotted a route from my home strip (Membury) to Sylt where I can clear customs. Then a quick hop back to Wyk Auf Foehr. At 100kts it will take me (with no wind) 4 hours. She's got the range. I've got nothing on that weekend......so maybe I'll pop over and say hi. 



The only scary bit is the 1 hr plus where I'd be over open water with no chance of gliding to land. Most of the remaining journey is also over water, but a minute or two from land.



The route I'm considering is:

Membury - Bedford

Bedford - Cromer

Cromer - GODOS

GODOS - AMSOT

AMSOT - SITSU

SITSU - TEGEC

TEGEC - The bottom of EDD41A

EDD41A - Sylt



I looked at a route over land as much as possible, but it's 4 1/2 hours plus and not achievable without a stop.



All the best.

Carl

Hi Carl,



would be great to meet you there again  



Don't worry about the water - the engine doesn't know that (at least that's the well known saying). OTOH the engine doesn't care where it quits - that's the scary thing.



So I would take the longer route, but that's just me - and I'm a Sissy 



Anyway it would be fun - and there's a hangar party as well 



Cheers

I'm thinking I may come over on the Friday afternoon and clear immigration in the Netherlands first to break-up the flight. I'd be camping this time.



I've also found a slightly different route that keeps me over land for more of the flight.

Less than a month from now, so check, if your camping gear is complete  



I'd like to focus your attention, that a registration is required, whether one intends to arrive on friday or saturday, to join the hangar party and pass the callsign.

Please also keep in mind, that you should approach the island of Föhr above 2000ft over the "Nationalpark Wattenmeer" if weather permits.  



Cheers

Hi Roland. 



I'm not going to make it to Wyk. To my horror I just noticed the certificate of validity  on my license has expired and I won't have time to get it renewed in time. I'm really not happy about it, but it's my own fault for not checking it sooner. I'll definitely join you on other flyins once it's all sorted. 



Have a great time. 

Carl

What a shame! So see you on the Texel fly in end of August - hopefully.

Currently it's raining cats and dogs in Düsseldorf, but I'm hoping to go in the afternoon and join the hangar party tonight.

On the webcam the weather at EDXY looks good with the first participants arriving.

See some of you later hopefully - I'm wearing my Europa cap of course
