Guil,
As far as I know manuals are available from Europa. Maybe the price would
be refundable on purchase of a kit........suggest you check this out. I am
sure the Europa manual would be as good as if not better than any other kit
available.
Rather than purchase a manual, I think a better idea would be to find a
Europa builder and sit in on some work being carried out..... you could
check out the manual at the same time. Seeing a bit of glass work being
done will rid you of any fears you may have of working with glass. Believe
me, you could not be more apprehensive than I was before I started and now
when I look back I cannot help wondering what the hell I was worried about.
> what kind of mods have people done?
Too many to list here. Try searching the archives of this list for a bit of
an idea. I think doing mods is the bane of 98% of builders but we all have
to put our mark of individuality on our aircraft and I must admit being
guilty of this too. I would probably be flying if I wasn't!
As with everything in life, there are many choices available and in deciding
what to build you will always have to trade off one thing for another. If
you decide to go the same way as we have, (and it would be good if you do)
I'm sure you will not be disappointed.
