On 6/15/2012 I purchased Bill Fisher's Lightning. After spending a week at Greg and Crystal Hobbs facility in Marana and several transition training days with HL Cooper(great instructor), I flew the nearly 1600 miles back to Georgia. The weather was great, and the air was smooth. Then Lightning is everything I dreamed it would be. Is it perfect, well, not yet. There are some upgrades to make, such as updating the EFIS and adding the AP servos. But the best part is the wife loves flying in it. Looking forward to many adventures in our new lady.

I've kept and eye on the Website and waited patiently for the next Newsletter but still have no idea what the announcement was all about (? something to do with the tail?) And now another "great step" to be announced at Oshkosh!! Have I missed something? Would be nice if the updated information was readily available to us past builders, either Website or Newsletter.

But heres is another first flight on a new LS1 the OAT was already near 100 degrees at takeoff around 9am. This is a brand new motor with .5hrs on it, zoom on in and check out the wonderful head temps. This is at the tip of climb over the airport. > > All flew well as expected. Density altitude at takeoff was well over 3,000'. Will be flight testing over the next few weeks before delivery. > > As all may know we had a big announcement at Sun N Fun this year.
