I’m happy to announce that Jim’s Lightning received it’s airworthiness certificate today, 7-12-2008 at 2:15pm at the Green Landings build center…
Well, I don’t really know what time the certificate was issued, but it did go down today, and it was at Green Landings.
We did some preliminary taxi testing, and will pick up on phase one testing next weekend.
Look for updated videos at www.jimslightning.com
Jim!

Congratulation Jim! I've been following your progress on your website. As soon as my son finishes college, I'm starting on my Lighning. Can't wait to hear how the MGL avionics perform.

Jim,
Congratulations on your Airworthiness Certificate! I've been following the build and chat as you've been working through your build. It's a beautiful aircraft. I begin my build in September at shelbyville. Now if I can only design something as stunning as yours! Any ideas you tossed away???
Hope to see you at Sun-n-fun....
Paul

Congratulations Jim! Thanks for keeping all of us posted during your build. If you need to fly off some of those hours, bring her down to Culpeper, VA (CJR) sometime.

Congrats Jim!!
You got yourself a very pretty machine there...you are gonna' draw "envy" everytime you stop for fuel....[img]cid:~WRD000.jpg[/img]
Lol...looking at your pics, I see Bobby Thomas did your inspec...Bob is a good guy, he has built a few planes in his life.
Have known him for many, many years(I suddenly feel old...)--He's the best when it comes to us "experimental" guys.
Have fun, be careful, and lets meet up sometime!
Best,
Rick

Good luck to you Paul. Anything I can to, or anything you want to use from my airplane is yours to do with as you like

Ron,
It sounds like the weather didn't play ball last weekend either.
Best wishes for day when it does arrive.
Also Ron, I have just learned that I will have to tour up your way next
weekend and would be passing through Hamilton around 5pm on Sunday. Is there
any chance you would be in your hangar and I could poke my nose in for a
quick hello and a squiz at the winged beauty?

No problem Ian. I live next to the airport so give me a call when you're
getting close and I will make arrangements to meet you at the hanger.
