It should also soon be up on Jim Langley's site as well. Go to either: _http://www.flylightning.net/_ (http://www.flylightning.net/) or _http://www.jimslightning.com/_ (http://www.jimslightning.com/) This issue of the Lightning "Hangar Talk" has several features you should find interesting and entertaining. First in an article by Clive James covering three European fly-ins that he attended this past summer. Next, Nick and I worked together to try to cover the new or revised 51% rule, it's changes, and how it will affect Arion's builder's assist program. The "factory news" section has a short flight report from Nick on their brand new demo Lightning and a change they are making to the Lightning nose wheel assembly. Currently flying Lightings may want to make this change as well. The "builder's and flyers" section has inputs from several of our readers: Pete Disher, Jim Hohannes, Steve Hacker, and our first builder from Germany, Gerd Nowack. You can also see what World Record Earl Ferguson has been up to in the "reader's feedback" section. (I wonder if he is thinking about setting a land speed record?) Once again, Pete's Engine Clinic is great reading as he talks about the Jabiru electrical generating system. Rounding out this issue are the upcoming events, safety items (more on X-wind landings), skunk works, tech tips, other items, and final thoughts (see what Joe Mathias has been up to in this section). As always, I am requesting any and all feedback. Yea, I know, the chances of actually getting any feedback is "slim to none", but I'll ask again just in case you are feeling generous for the upcoming holiday season. And speaking of the holiday season, I hear Santa is thinking about a Lightning to replace his sleigh and 8 reindeer - faster, more economical, and sexier. You also know he keeps a naughty and nice list, and if you send some feedback on the newsletter, I'll put in a good work for you to get on the nice list. Other wise, you're naughty.
