With the benign stall characteristics of the PH-DIY and plenty of

natural warning before stalling, a stall warner is not really necessary.

But I had already installed the stall warner before the plane was

finished, so I decided to adjust it anyway.



After I adjusted the Europa stall warner to 6 knots above the stall, I

noticed that the stall warner warns when I'm parked at the ground.

Technically this is correct of course, a non flying airplane is

permanently in a stall condition, but is it supposed to work this way?

I have the same thing when parked into the wind, mine especially shows

this behavior when not parked straight into to the leading wind

direction.

Initially the screaming warner annoyed me a bit, but I have learned to

appreciate the additional confirmation that the stall warner is

operational

Hi Frans,



Ours did that as well, so we adjusted the sensitivity until it stopped

beeping on the ground.  It still gave us the in-flight margin we had

originally set it for.  I suspect the stall 'speed' is more a function

of the placement of the hole in the wing than the sensitivity

adjustment.

Do you have stall strips fitted? You should have a stall warner if you don't. Their setting will also affect the stall, sounds like yours are well adjusted. 

If you don't have them, rain or bug contamination could have a bad effect on stall behavior so be careful and don't assume anything is constant.

Hi, I am interested in fitting a stall warner to my plane in build, where can I find details of approved type and fitting?

Hi Graeme,



There is a standard Europa mod for this.  You can find details on the Europa

web site.  Go to http://www.europa-aircraft.com/ .  Follow links to

Technical then mods and then look at Mod 61A.   I think you will find all

you need in there.
