Long Wing Europa Receives Approval From The UK LAA

MTOM Increased To 1,370 Pounds

The U.K. Light Aircraft Association (UK LAA) has issued an approval for an increase in the Maximum Take Off Mass (Weight) for the Long Wing variant of the Europa XS, formerly referred to as the Motorglider. The MTOM has been increased to 1,370 pounds.

The company says this is fantastic news for its U.K. customers as they now have the opportunity to interchange these wings with the existing shorter tourer wings for more diverse flight experiences. The versatility of interchangeable wings has been enjoyed in other countries around the globe already, highlighting one of its many credentials; being one of the most versatile kit planes available in the world today.

To celebrate this announcement, Europa Aircraft is offering a 12.5% discount off Long Wing kits. This applies to conversion kits and full kits purchased in 2018 with the Long Wing option. This offer is open to all owners, and not just U.K. residents.

The offer includes:

  • Long Wing conversion kits and full kits with the Long Wing option.
  • The offer will end at the close of Europa’s business year at midday on 22nd December 2018
  • A 50% deposit is required with the order with the remainder due prior to shipment.
  • Prices are exclusive of VAT, handling and delivery charges.
  • Delivery time will be circa four months from the date of order.
  • Europa Aircraft reserves the right to change prices, terms or conditions at any time without prior notice. However, once an order is placed the price will remain fixed.

The promotion ends at the end of 2018.
