Conventional geared Europa's do  very well with wheel landings.

I have never seen a conventional gear Europa. Presumbly you have one  in

Florida? Any photos? I quite like the idea and wonder if  there are
possible 
conversions to be done.  Probably too much in the  way of weight shift
etc to be a 
viable project?
