Damn, Rick, you must be a fast reader. Either that or you just look at the pictures and wonder what all those words say.

Hi Buz,
Very nice job on the News Letter. I recommend you for the Lightning Strike award for communications excellence. You certainly deserve it!

Great job Buz! As I said in my other email to you, I think a great name would be LIGHTNING BUZZ for the news letter! A nice way to say thanks and for all to remember where the news letter came from.

Yes, I will second that "The Lightning Buzz" a pretty good name, it would bring it all together, the buzz of activity from aircraft to editor.
But in the back of my mind I could still see Leader, "The Lightning Leader", were else does one find 140Kts and 21Li. and getting better all the time.

Hey Buzz: Great job! I like the Lightning Buzz name also. Keep it going.
I guess my kit is still waiting a number. I am really looking forward to getting started on April 21 st. The N number will be N13LN. See you all in a couple of weeks (at Sun N Fun).

Peter,
Those flap gaps filled in and flap hinge covers look great! Any chance that you could see me a couple of those pics in higher
resolution? The results of all of my gap seal experiments are in and a TAS of 6 knots was gained just by closing up that area under the wing mainly. Never got a chance to test that with the flap hinge fairings, but figure on 2-3 knots which is what is typical for hinge fairings alone. Of course adding both will only increase the benefits, so it's quiet possible that your extra time and effort has gained you 10 extra knots of speed or a decrease in fuel burn at the same cruise speed. Trying to get the extra 10 knots is going to be more than just 50 RPM for an aircraft unmodified like this and therefore should be a good decrease in fuel consumption if you travel at the original cruise speed. Get that carb set up right and get a good prop on that plane and you'll have quiet possibly the fastest Lightning out there! Keep us updated once you get to test it! Thanks, Brian W.
P.S. Mind if I put one of those pics in the recommendations section of my thesis? As you might have guessed, this is what I would do instead of gap seals for a composite aircraft application in order to keep from having to maintain actual gap seals.

Buz,
Another good job! I think the suggestion of the Lightning Buzz sounds good too. Not only does it give homage to the writer, but also the buzz that is going on about the Lightning, as well as my favorite thing to do in the Lightning, buzz the field!

Hi Lynn,
So maybe you are #60 - the Your name, Your town, call Dana - guy. I am sure she will keep me updated for future issues. When you start your build on 21 April, how about giving the newsletter some progress photos and words during your experience. Something along the lines of "Here is the progress after week one, week two, etc. with photos and words to explain what all has been done.
Yes, Sun-N-Fun is getting close and I hope we have a good turnout. Nick or Pete, if you are reading this how about setting a time and place for a get together. Also, did you get a Lightning forum scheduled for this year? I will be arriving early again this year - weather permitting will get there 4 April - and will be camping again with my friends in the Vintage area. Will be volunteering in the Type Club Tent at the American Bonanza Society table for a few hours each day. We probably need a "sign in" sheet at the Arion booth so we can see who has arrived and leave messages for each other.
Blue Skies,
Buz

Thanks for the vote of confidence and the name suggestion, but personally I don't think that name will fly. To my way of thinking it just doesn't have the right "ring", plus I don't think the newsletter should have someone's name in it. Even though it really isn't my name in the newsletter (Buz is a name; buzz is a noise - that's my thought), I really wouldn't feel comfortable with that. Besides, at some point in the future, someone else will take over the newsletter (hopefully sooner rather than later).
I started the newsletter because it needed to be done. The factory guys are too busy to do it and even thought I suggested it to several Lightning builders at the first Lightning Fly-In, no one seemed to "get the hint". So being a big believer in the product and the guys that developed it, I thought it would be a way for me to help out until someone else steps up. And that's a hint for someone out there to start thinking about doing this job at some future point. I am pretty busy with all the aviation volunteer work I do, and even though it keeps me busy and on the go, I love it all and feel it is important for me to give back. I consider the SYI team as close friends and want to see them continue to grow the company and the airplane - make that airplanes, because I really like the Jabiru line of aircraft as well.
Blue Skies,
Buz

Hey Buz, you might get overruled on this one! Lets just forget your name is Buz, and think of how appropriate this is. There has been so much buzzz about this plane and planes buzz fields and lightning does buzz when it strikes etc. Just add some more zzz to it so it won't make you uncomfortable, even if someone else had started this, I think this is the right name. LIGHTNING BUZZZZZ
