It has to be that engine from Belgium. The UL 350is!! I am stuck in an office all week while they play a little golf tournament here in our fair city. Perhaps you have heard of it, The Master's. The world is herethis week and the skies are crazy with planes much bigger than my Lightning, but not as much fun to fly!.. Enjoy the show and send lots of reports. -------- Gene and Janeen Mohr N838BF (formerly Bill Fisher's Lightning) Martinez, GA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=398226#398226 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:58:33 AM PST US From: Charles Gallagher Subject: Re: Lightning-List: All ready for Sun N Fun Buz ,with the new bigger tail feathers,is the UL520i 242lb.installed weight ,180HP,313FT.LB. engine now available?- CRG-=0A =0A=0A_________________ _______________=0A From: "N1BZRich@AOL.COM" =0ATo: lightn ing-list@matronics.com =0ASent: Monday, April 8, 2013 7:24 PM=0ASubject: Re : Lightning-List: All ready for Sun N Fun=0A =0A=0AActually, we put the $3 00K turbo diesel in my Vette, and my Vette engine is =0Agoing on the next L ightning. =0AOver 400 HP. =0AWhen will you and your family be at SNF.- I want to meet your new =0Adaughter.- =0ABuz =0A=0AIn a message dated 4/8/ 2013 8:15:09 P.M.

Any guess as to what engine is under wraps on the Lightning fuselage (see photos below)? Find out tomorrow morning, It is an exciting announcement by the Lightning guys and an option for any future experimental built Lightnings. They have been working on this for several months and it will be flying by Oshkosh. There are two Lightnings on display, one in the regular booth and one in the Light Sport Mall which this year is located inside where the ultra-lite area is. Hope to see many of the Lightning group at Sun N Fun. The weather looks to be good at least for the first several days. Right now there are not as many airplanes as we normally see on the day before opening, but hopefully more will arrive as the week goes on. Remember there are two Lightning forums scheduled, one on Wednesday, 10 April at 1100 in the forums building, and one on Saturday, 14 April at 0900. And the annual Lightning Sun N Fun get together for anyone interested in the Lightning will be Friday, April 13 at noon in the Lightning Booth (same booth as in the past). If you are new to Sun N Fun, the Lightning booth in on the road behind the FAA building.
