I have an Esqual. a with jab 3300. My fix or relief came when I mounted my
antenna, vhf-51, inside the vertical stabilizer and used rg 400 cable. When
it is stuck inside the fuselage only about 1/2 of it is mounted vertical,
this is ok if you are doing steady aileron rolls, just kidding, so I
thought why not in the tail where you get a total vertical antenna and it is
as far away from the engine as possible.I can receive and send clear 100
plus miles Unicom frequency. I have a Garmin SL 40.
Hope this helps Dave McC.

how
much flying time is now on your aircraft. Actually, if you anticipate
flying a lot between now and Sun N Fun, add that estimated time to the

your N Number (or country registration) along with the type (Lightning or
Esqual) and total hours of flying time.
I will provide all of you the results of this poll when (and if) I get
good feedback. And you get to be part of the overall marketing plan for
the

Gary,
Great looking aircraft. Is it built to fit Light Sport? I see it has
the winglets (if that is the proper term).
I have looked at the Lightning for a number of years, but did not like
the early LSA configuration. Now that it can be built "full dress", my
wife and I have decided to build one.
We are going to visit with Greg Hobbs in early May in order to get a
closer look. Looking forward to it.
Do you keep your aircraft near Marana, AZ?

Mike,
There is really no difference between the planes. Long wings may bring
the
"clean" stall speed down a bit, but the rest is the same unless vortex
generators were installed.
LSA planes are limited to a "maximum continuous" rpm of 2850 according to
the Jabiru manual. The prop must be pitched to yield 120 knots true at
sea
level. And appropriate log book entries made.
Only a fool would admit in writing or email that his LSA Lightning is flown
faster than that.
If you check Buz's post of a few days ago, you will note that his speeds of
around 160 true all come at higher RPM's (except the first one) But
remember that his is a very carefully built Esqual which has a slightly
different
wing.
It is worth noting that there is a significant difference between a fully
faired clean Lightning and a "dirty" one when it comes to cruise and top
speeds.

Subject: Re: Lightning-List: Flying Time
Greetings Mike
The Lightning is a very good looking airplane. People comment on how
good it looks everywhere I fly. For example, yesterday I flew to
Williams-Gateway Airport. The attendant on the apron stopped and we
talked for several minutes about how streamlined it was. Then, two
retired airline pilots asked about it and commented on how much they
liked it. These two guys just landed with a private jet! If I were a
salesman, I could make some extra money.
I did not build my Lightning specifically for Light Sport. However, as
you know, they can be built that way.
I recommend the winglets. They add to the surface area of the wings and
I believe they shorten the take off roll, the landing roll, lessen the
stall speed and create more lift. Besides, they look really cool!
If you build a Lightning, I don't think you will regret it. Knowing that
nothing is perfect, I believe the Lightning is a good value for a new
airplane, especially if you compare it to all other "Factory built" or
"Kit" aircraft available. If you do your research, you will discover
that prices for LSA aircraft are quite high. Some exceeding $125,000.00!
You could buy a really nice used GA airplane for that.
The Lightning is a fast, slippery, comfortable airplane that handles
pretty well. It is not perfect but nothing is. It does have a quirk that
I would like to see resolved..... gear leg shimmy. It is very annoying.
At times, it rattles the entire airplane. That can't be good for the
structure.
I know Greg Hobbs. I think he is a good, honest man. Be sure you take
the "Transition Training".
Yes, I keep my plane at Marana Airport. The first two LSA airplanes I
built, I kept under the shade ports at Marana, but my Lightning has to
be in a hanger, though it is much more costly. I've discovered that
people are curious and like to touch. Once, I caught a man and woman
trying to climb into my last airplane. I can't allow that with the
Lightning.
Anyway, good luck with your decision. I hope to see you at the airport.
Happy flying.

Gary,
Thanks for the input.
RVs apparently have the same issue (nose wheel shimmy). An apparent
problem with free castering nose wheels. All though this problem is
probably partially avoidable through proper flight techniques, the
occasional occurrence is worth all of the other benefits of the
aircraft. This is where that all important "Transition Training", as
you have recommended, will come in to play for me.
Arion is undoubtedly working on the problem. Hopefully it will be
resolved soon.
Thanks again,
Mike
Ps. I'll drop you a note when we know the exact date of our visit. My
wife and I would appreciate meeting you.

From: "Dirtbos" <dirtbozz@att.net>
Doug,
Thanks for the input. I guess all I really needed to know was the the LSA
138
mph max at sea level was achievable and accurate for the Lightning's LSA
configuration.

All Lightning / Esqual?flyers,
????I am collecting some "marketing data" for the new LS-1 Lightning that
might
be helpful to show potential SLSA and ELSA customers that the Lightning is
not
a new development, but a light sport airplane that was based on the very
successful
EAB Lightning and the Esqual before that.? So all you Lightning and Esqual
owners, past and current, please help the effort by sending me how much
flying
time is now on your aircraft.? Actually, if you anticipate flying a lot
between now and Sun N Fun, add that estimated time to the total you send
me.?
And just to keep things from getting confusing, please also send your N
Number
(or country registration) along with the type (Lightning or Esqual) and
total
hours of flying time.
????I will provide all of you the results of this poll when (and if) I get
good
feedback.? And you get to be part of the overall marketing plan for the new
LS-1
Lightning.??Thanks in advance.
Buz

Thanks, Craig, I will put that down. Actually Nick and I had estimated 40,
so I guess we were in the ball park.

| Subject: | Radio not working, Need opinions as to a fix please |
Can you all look at he enclosed photograph and see if you can help me figure
out how to get it working. My test pilot (an ex-fighter pilot) has indicated
that it is not working at all. He says the radio just blinks and flashes like
it is working (turned on) and pushing all the buttons doesn't seem to do anything
to get it working. He has had to use a hand-held radio and refuses to fly
again until the radio is fixed.
As far as I know, the radio in my plane has never worked. I have never flown
the plane myself, but I do not think it has ever been functional. Is this a simple
fix?
