We need you there to inspire everyone else that your dreams can come true. So jump in your jet and head to Tennessee. Besides the federal shut down has canceled the Air Force Navy game on Saturday, so you will not get to see the Zoomies from USAFA (far, far above Annapolis and West Point) beat up on the Swabies from Canoe U. Only 3 days to go. Hope to see you, and all other Lightning folks there. Buz In a message dated 10/1/2013 9:14:28 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, EAFerguson@AOL.COM writes: Sigh! Regrets again this year.

Yes, the annual Lightning Homecoming and Fly-In starts this Friday evening, 4 October, at the Arion Hangar at the airport (KSYI) in Shelbyville, TN. This event is for everyone - especially those that are interested in the Lightning aircraft and gives you a chance to meet other owners, builders and flyers, as well as demo flights and updated briefings on this fantastic aircraft. As always, there are lots of activities scheduled including the Friday night hangar party that will include the annual creeper races as well as some new games that Nick and Mark have come up with. Have you played "Thunder Cup" or "Giant Janga"? Thunder Cup is a two person team event that involves target and athletic skills. Janga (no, not the town in Iran) is a tower engineering construction and "destructive" game of skill and luck. There will also be beer and brats and lots of time for hangar talk. Saturday, weather permitting, will probably be a fly out to breakfast followed by the annual Lightning Air Races. As always, there will be the Light Sport Class and the Go Fast Class, as well as the Excellence in Navigation Award. Golden Lightning Bolt awards for the race winners and others as well like the longest distance, oldest Lightning, etc. Saturday will also include briefings on the latest Lightning modifications and plans for the future. If we are lucky, we might even get a chance to see the brand new "Go really fast" 160 HP Lightning XS (previous code name Strike). It is not too late to make plans to attend this annual fun event. Hope to see everyone there.
