    Got my kit last week and has arrived in good shape. I have made a nice stand for the fuse out of the wood the crate was made of. I have made the stand with wheels, so I can roll it out on the driveway to do the sanding and drilling of the fiberglass. It sure makes a mess in the garage if you don't. TEX

    Subject: Matronics Email List Web Server Upgrade Tonight...
    --> Lightning-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Listers, This evening I will be upgrading the Matronics Web Server hardware to a new Quad-processor 2.8Ghz Xeon system (yes, 4-physical CPUs!) with an Ultra 320 SCSI Raid 5 disk system and 5GB of DDR2 RAM. As with the older system, the new system will be running the latest version of Redhat Linux. Most of the software configuration work is already done for the migration, but I still have to sync all of the archive and forum data from the old system to the new system. I am anticipating about 2 to 3 hours of downtime for me to fully make the transition, although it could be considerable less if everything goes according to plan. The Matronics Webserver will be *UNavailable* from the Internet during the work, and you will receive a time-out if you try to connect during the upgrade. Email List Distribution will be *available* during the upgrade of the Web Server, and List message distribution will function as normal. This represents a significant performance upgrade for the Matronics Web Server and you should notice nicely improved searching and surfing performance following the upgrade! Best regards, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator

    Exciting times Tex. If I remember correctly from when we met at Osh Kosh 2005, you have significant building and flying experience, so I am really looking forward to you sharing some insightful commentary!

    Congratulations, Tex. I have been mostly a lurker, but my kit arrived a week before Oshkosh, so I'll be joining you in providing progress reports. I, too, will be building my Lightning without 'factory' assistance, so anticipate a few bumps in the road as construction gets under way. Greg Hobbs has offered to lend a hand, and I'll be starting construction at his facility here in Arizona. I was at Oshkosh last week, and was able to meet much of the Shelbyville crew - a great bunch. They were showing an OEM interior, which in my opinion is a significant improvement (although costly). I also met Buzz, and spent several hours drooling over his beautiful Esqual/Lighning. It looks even better in person than it does in the photos. It gives us a high bar to shoot for. If mine turns out half as nice, I'll be thrilled.
