Subject: Re: Europa ground looping at Aerofair.
I suspect it may have been one of our customers. We have some PV50 blades on
their way for repair after a ground loop. Minor damage to the propeller
internals, minor damage to the blades. It was a Europa Classic mono and very
experienced owner, but very stiff cross wind.
