Europas in taildragger configuration.
They bought a main gear leg of MCR-01 to replace the mono-wheel.
These parts need modifications/adaptations in order to fit the Europa. These
legs are designed to be used only with the carbon wheels mounted on the
MCR-01 (very light... and $$$) , with a drum brake system.
The potentially good news is that we are now in the process to
complete a prototype composite gear leg designed for the Europa. This
landing gear will be easier to fit under the plane than the MCR-01 leg and
is designed to accomodate standard MATCO wheels with disk brakes...
We plan to end the tests during next month and have the Swiss
approuval soon after (not depending of us)...
We will market a kit for the modification once everything is
finished. Not before...
I'm curious about the number of potientially interested people by a
retrofit/modification kit based on this leg... This will ease our production
planning and price calculation...
We won't do any advertising until everything is set for
production... In order to avoid unhappy customers and unreasonable shipping
delays...
Thanks... This message must be taken as an information more than a
commercial Ad. I prefer to be honest by explaining what we intend to do than
saying that somebody else at the same address is planning to sell a
taildragger conversion kit...
