In order to sell E-LSA Lightning we must have a very detailed ASTM compliant build manual so a builder could in detail re-produce the original aircraft. This will also help with improving the build manual for amateur builder as well. With this in mind any one with helpful suggestions to the manual please email them directly to me at nick@flylightning.net We will be placing updates very regularly over the next few months to the original manual on the owners site. Section 20 has been posted today.

It may not be until April because the main story for March will be a report and photos from the Sebring fly in which was held in late January. Please send me some more photos of your "jet" when you get the additional graphics applied.

If I get a chance today I will email you a summary, that's presuming I can get an email through, it seems to be a bit hit and miss recently. An important point that needs attention is the version information in the manual. Sections are being updated but the "last update" date in the index is frequently not being changed. For example sections 20, 30 and 41 have been changed but the dates have not. There may well others which I have yet to discover. The documents have page footers which pretend to have revision number and date information but these are not being updated when the documents are revised. This makes them both useless and misleading. These inadequacies mean that the only way to check for manual updates is to download each section and compare against our printed copies. This is time consuming, prone to error and hardly an acceptable solution. A couple of hours may be required to get these things in order but once done very little additional time will be required in the amendment process to maintain the information. -------- Cheers, Selwyn Kit 66 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=228366#228366 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 05:43:50 PM PST US Subject: Re: Lightning-List: FW: From Peter Mitchell From: n5pb@AOL.COM Wow, really interesting place.? Thanks for explaining. Paul -----Original Message----- From: Peter Sent: Tue, 3 Feb 2009 1:09 am Subject: RE: Lightning-List: FW: From Peter Mitchell Hi Paul ? Oodnadatta is a tiny isolated town in Central Aus. And consists of the Pink Roadhouse, General store and Pub. Population about 10 whites and 300 Aborigines. It used to be an important stop over for the railway many years ago, however the rail now by-passes the town and it would only be visited by a small no. of tourists each year. It has a great air strip which was used for training during the 2nd world war. We only went there because so few people do. ? Cheers Peter ?
