Hi! Carl,
On the contrary, your comment about the LAA may just be relevant since in my
opinion they should be able to bring pressure on the new owners (Swift
Aviation) of the Europa Company to research and secure suitable replacement
parts.
I have sold my redundant Mono Suspension parts since G-PTAG will now be
permanently fitted out as a trike , otherwise I would have volunteered you
an unused set. But of course you could do a trike conversion on your
aircraft !
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG.

That doesen't look too promising.
I guess things will have to stay as they are for the time being. I was
hoping to replace the dampers when I replaced the oilite bearings this week.
I will take the dimensions when I have the block out and keep a look out for
something suitable.
I did take a quick look on Ebay and found a damper which appeared to have
similar dimensions (from memory).

I dont suppose anybody has a drawing of the damper with the dimensions ?
I guess it will be a matter of trial and error, not to mention getting LAA
approval.
If I have any luck, I will let you know.
