Hi All, 

          Just been reading an article in the August Flyer. "Ivan Shaw 

flying from Dubai to Doncaster" and I wondered if the XL2 has the same 

set up for the elevators (tailplane) as our Europa's. Are the elevators 

composite or metal? It would be interesting to know if they changed it, 

and what changes, if any.



Just a thought

Hi Danny

Good point. I suspect the XL2 might be significantly different as there was 

not the design objective to keep it on a trailer at home. Perhaps someone 

can enlighten.

The tailplanes were designed for easy removal but I don't think it is 

identical, looked more complicated and the FAA may have redesigned it 

for him!

What's the XL2? Have I missed something coming down the pike from 

Europa?

Hi All,

We met Ivan at Friedrichshafens Aero 2007. He there represented the XL. He 

said: "When I was young I was in a hurry to design the Europa;

but this (XL or Liberty) is by comparison to cars a Volvo."

I thought I was flying a Rolls Royce! Even a handmade one.

The Liberty is a bit like a Europa with diluted testosterone. The FAA 

and the accountants messed with the design and it shows
