Welcome to ukmicrolights.com
A few pictures of the engine and cockpit
Nice interior instrument fit with Autopilot
and VP prop
I'm cruising around 115 knots and burning
15 liters per hour, at 3100 rpm, so the economy
is fantastic!. In total it has done almost
400 hours (Jan 03).
The CAP 140 VP prop is excellent and allows
full RPM for take off and in the cruise really
does coarsen the prop and bring down the
RPM. The fuel economy then increases as the
revs are lowered, this make a massive difference.
Kit number 16, The build took 3 years and
2700 hours, not built by me though!

If you have never tried a Europa you should
but be warned it leaves a smile on your face
for ages!
