Good job on the newsletter Buz! Any word on when the kitplanes magazine ar
ticle will be published? Also, haven't seen it published anywhere, but wha
t is the change in range with the new 30 gallon tanks? When I was around S
YI we spoke several times about a new hatch design that would allow for loc
king and also to get into the plane from the outside. At the time it was j
ust a hangar dream, but Nick had some ideas. Looks like it finally made it
into production and that is a great edition. I personally think that the
new wingtip extensions, besides providing a higher glide ratio, will be a
great sale due to a slightly more stable cross country platform, but mainly
due to the increased good looks in an already sexy looking aircraft. One
change that I did not know of that will really be beneficial to newer pilot
s is the Lightning's new trim system. Many of the trim systems were very s
ensitive. It was easy enough to use, but this new system will allow for fi
ne tuning the system. Again, the ability to tune the amount of pitch contr
ol will be a welcome edition as it will allow for a "sportier feel" or a mo
re "Conventional feel". I will get some pics for your newsletter as I make
my way back up before summer. Keep up the good work Buz, Brian W.

The John Amundsen you speak of, is that the same former U2 pilot? If it is,
I used to know him from his days with Kal-Aero in Kalamazoo MI.

Over the next few weeks I will be updating www.jimslightning.com to include
some of the new stuff that is happening in the Lightning world. Right now I
have added a page dedicated to the newsletter and a link to the owners and
dealers map.
As before, I will be maintaining my build log on my Kitlog site which is at
http://www.mykitlog.com/pequeajim
I'm getting really close now.

I don't know if you all knew this, but you can also post pictures that are
tied to your map pin? Frapper will allow you to post several pics, so if
you don't have a place to share pictures of your baby, you can do it here.

Subject: Lightning-List: Re: Frapper Map
Here are a few tips for entering your information.
There are two color pins, (I can add more if needed)
- Use yellow if you are a customer
- Use red if you are a dealer/distributer
Use the "shoutout" field to describe yourself, or add your web address.
For instance
Green Landings Flight Center
www.greenlandings.com
(Telephone number)
The map is nto perfect and has some bugs, but it IS a great way to us to see
at a glance where everyone is, and for new customers to gather information
about distributers and customers.
Jim!

Subject: | Extended range gas tanks // Conversion possible? |
With the new Lightnings having the extended range, is
it possible to convert an old Lightning with the 8
gallon less tanks to long range? One day I would
love to be able to fly to Europe but am going to need
more gas to do so. Is it possible to just have an
extra tank in the cabin, like in the passenger seat,
that has a rubber hose feeding one of the tanks??

Subject: | Still looking for a CFI for Lightning transition |
I am still looking for a CFI to do 10 hours of
transition training in a Lightning so I can fly off
the 40 hours in my new Lightning. I have great
references. My instrucor was a U2 pilot who can attest
to my skills and quick-learning ability and sharp
reflexes and concern for safety. Plane is in WV, one
hour from Washington, DC. beltway. I can travel to you
to get this done. Thanks, Charles Dewey
