Take the time you think it will take to build - add in all the f-factor you
can think of and then double it.
But remember that the journey is as important as the destination
(glasshopper).

Subject: Europa-List: Europa Classic Test Fitting
Hello All,
I'm new to this forum but have just joined as I'm thinking of building a
Europa. I had my mind set on an XS and possibly a Hi-top but I've recently
seen a Classic kit for sale which is unstarted. I've had a flight as a
passenger in a Classic and being 6'1" tall and medium (ish!) build I fitted
in fairly well. However, I would like to sit in a Classic (with/without
cockpit mods (LA etc)) again before I make my mind up.
I'm located in Northampton in the UK. Is there any Europa Classic owner
nearby who could spare an hour or so to let me have a look at their aircraft
and have a sit in it please?
Also, I've seen quite a lot of info on the net about this but could any
Classic builders give a realistic estimate of build times for this kit. I
was going to go for the fastbuild option (~1000hrs) but with a Classic
'Slowbuild' I guess I'm looking at much longer.
Thanks,
Phil
