To All:
The Ultimate Ventilator I have on my website ceased production in December 2017. I have no idea who the manufacturer was.
I have just tried the Vista Vent as some of you have, and am concerned. They are large and if pulled down will stress the plexi vent and I’m afraid it will eventually fail.
It is hot here in Florida and I am stuck. Snap vents are cheap, Vista has me worried, and it looks like quick ventilation fixes for guys that come in dying in the heat are over. I’ve just ordered the cheap snap vents and will look before I leap on these.
Last thing I want to do is invent another thing.
Best Regards,
Bud Yerly

I don’t have experience with the Vista vents, but the Ultimate vents I have installed are easily done and are troublefree.
A word about placement. I installed mine just below the windscreen quarter and I recommend installing them in the windscreen quarter. I have flown both installations and the performance of the windscreen quarter units is far superior.
The windscreen installed vents allow air to directly vent to the face, while installing them just below the windscreen is less direct. The difference is significant.
Hold your mouth correctly and use a sharp hole saw.
Ask Bud.

Hi Phil. Have you considered the ultimate vents? They work very well

My post should have read " I would prefer to mount them [the Vista vents] in the
quarter lights [lower corners of the windscreen] but have been told that the
windshield is a stressed item." Unfortunately the quarter was written as a figure
and did not come through as such on the Matronics list.

Subject: Return of unused fuel to reserve tank
From: "Europa48" <corinthian(at)me.com>
Hi
Does anyone know what the normal rate of fuel return is from a Europa Xs main fuel
tank to the reserve is? Is it necessary to use the reserve side first before
switching to the main tank to allow space for unused fuel to be returned, or
does any excess just go to the main tank.
Thanks

Will,
The maximum I have taken off with is 1600 lbs. Gary Leinberger has also.
I do not recommend normal operations beyond 1450 for anything resembling no
rmal operations. I have a number of clients that operate at 1450 lbs. take
off weight.
To ferry an aircraft, or one time flight in the best of conditions, conside
r using the following guide lines:
The CG should be narrowed slightly to 59 inches to 62inches above 1450 lbs
takeoff weight until sure of operations with a further aft CG is verified

I had the same problem Bud and found they stressed out because of the taper on the minibolt head.. When tightened it put stress on the plastic causing it to crack. Replacing the stainless bolt with a straight shank should solve it
