EUROPA XS LONG WING (MOTORGLIDER) “The Europa Motorglider is an ideal machine in which to sail the endless ocean that is the sky” Today’s Pilot The Europa Long Wing (Motorglider) is the latest version of the Europa XS, which underlines its’ position as being the most versatile aircraft in the world! The Long Wing (Motorglider) wings are fully interchangeable with the standard wings of both the Monowheel and Trigear. This provides for a genuine 2 in 1 aircraft. The Europa Long Wing (Motorglider) is an ideal machine to glide through the sky and with the motor shut down you can really savour the flavour of flight. It is available both as a Monowheel or Trigear with comparable performance and specifications. The advantage of the Long Wing (Motorglider) is that in most countries it can be flown without the need for a full aviation Class II medical. Therefore you get the full benefit of the Europa XS but with less bureaucracy. The licences are then handled on a national level and are generally only valid in that particular country although some may have cross border acceptance. The Long Wing (Motorglider) can be supplied with a number of different engines, although we recommend those from Rotax. The Rotax engines currently range from 80HP through to 115HP. The latter unit being turbocharged. “The aesthetics of Europa’s latest design are quite remarkable. As the motor glider wing has been designed to be flown on the XS fuselage, it would not be unreasonable to expect the Motor glider to look a little like an afterthought. In fact, even when standing side by side, both models are so elegant that it would be hard to say which wing was the original” Today’s Pilot
