It turns out, I was quite lucky to have a wish list and having it fulfilled so quickly ... well .... partly
Yesterday, a very enthusiastic Europa-owner took me for in his trigear for a ride. From my limited experience, it felt like a very capable aircraft as people here have pointed out. The controls react quick, flies fast (we were cruising at 125 kts), has quite large baggage space and looks shiny
Yes, one has to weigh against the small cockpit leg-space. It would be difficult to fly more than a 3-hours-leg.
Well, I loved what I saw and felt.
My pilot friend commented that Europa is past it heydays. Anyone knows how many kits are they selling per year?
