That is a work of art, congratulations. I notice your retractable sunshade, is that completely home grown or an adaption of something commercial? I prefer that idea to the painted out canopy and I've seen similar things in some commercial builds but I haven't found a source yet. I'm just beginning paint, otherwise most else is done. -------- Cheers, Selwyn Kit 66 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=267438#267438 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:54:26 AM PST US From: "Tex Mantell" Subject: Re: Lightning-List: Re: N251TM The shade is from an RV. look on their web site.

Tex > > --- Thanks Tex. Just goes to show Google doesn't always get it right! "Sunshade" and variants did not turn up anything useful but, sure enough, its on the Vans RV accessories list. "Koger sunshade" finds it in other places as well. -------- Cheers, Selwyn Kit 66 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=267525#267525 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 06:54:25 PM PST US From: N1BZRich@AOL.COM Subject: Lightning-List: MAYDAY - MAYDAY - MAYDAY OR HELP - HELP - HELP. I must have taken over 100 photos at the Lightning Homecoming and fly-in to be used in the Lightning newsletter. You can imagine my horror when I tried to down load them from the camera just now and found that only 17 photos had worked. Hey, I don't mind buying a new camera, but the photos I took are lost forever. Bummer. So PLEASE help me out. If you took any photos while in SYI this past weekend, please send them to me so the next newsletter will at least have some record of our great fly-in. I also took photos to be used for the "Lightning of the Month" feature in the newsletter and now I have none for that either. So send all that you have - PLEASE. Now just a few words about the fly-in. Those that were there will tell you what a super time we had even though the weather was delta sierra. We didn't get to do any of the flying events that were planned because of rain and low ceilings, but everything else was outstanding. Nick, Mark, Pete, and all the SYI gang put on a first class event and it was great to see all the Lightning team and customers again. It was great to see a hangar full of Lightnings and even several over in the Jabiru hangar. Start planning now for next year.
