Building a Europa would be extremely dull if everything went right the first time. This applies to the engine as well it seems. It is delivered without a mounting frame. Call the dealer who tells me most planes use a different mounting so the frame is not delivered as standard. I ordered the engine for a EUROPA, so how difficult can that be? But no problem, if I give him even more money he will send me one.
Turns out fitting the frame to the engine is a nightmare. All sorts of stuff has to come off and even then it is like a Chinese puzzle to get it to fit. We persevere and win.
