Hi Rick,

The Liberty is actually quite different. It is larger (throught the 
fuselage/cockpit)
and uses quite different construction. The
fuselage is metal tube and the wings and control surfaces are aluminum vs all 
fiber
glass for the Europa. Its fuel tank is bigger
and it uses an engine that would be too heavy for a Europa, with a cowl specific
to it.
I doubt there is anything from the Liberty that could be used on a Europa.

regards,
Terry Seaver
N135TD, Europa XS, Monowheel
