Raimo,
Congratulations to all the finish airmen. Pik has a good reputation. Is
there also one with shoulder wings? Is Tervamaki the designer?
Regards,
Karel Vranken. F-PKRL 200 hours and annual inspection.

All
This is quite far from Europa world (except Wilkch-operators) but maybe you
are interested:
My friend Mr Jarmo Hakala made a succesfull 40 minutes flight with his
only-one-in-the-world
Pik 25 OH-XXV powered with 100% Bio-Diesel. Fuel was regenerated from
vegetable oil
and those people who were there said the smell after take-off was similar to
McDonalds.
After flight those people with Mr Hakala "cheers" with that drinkable fuel.
Official supervisor for that event in Jarmos own airport EFNS was Mr P
Teravainen
That was probably first time in the aviation history.
Google OH-XXV
Regards, Raimo
PS: he was early days a potential Europa builder but assumed to be too tall
193 cm /76".
