Beautiful job Helmut. I am sure you will enjoy the flying as much as the  building.

Congratulations to you and your brother Helmut.  Looks like you did a really good job.  I'd be really interested in hearing more about your fuel injected setup.  350 hours without trouble is a pretty good data point.  Perhaps you have pictures and could share the story with Buz to put in a future article?  Do you notice anything in particular about the engine after fuel injecting?  Does it seem to run smoother C have more power C etc?  Thanks C Brian W.

Thanks Brian,the injected engine on my jab runs smoother,  has more power and is very ecenomical especially in cruise. The lightning engine  on ground runups sound good but it has only the base  fuel mapping I put in  until I can fine tune it when we start test flying. The real  advantage of electronic fuel injection is once the maps are set up the air  fuel ratio stays the same regardless of atmospheric conditions and altitude.  I  advised Steve Biele with the electronic fuel injection on his lightning  and set up his fuel maps. He uses a different throttle body other than that  everything else is the same as my jab and my brothersd lightning. The problem we  are currently having with Steve's system is EGT distribution between cylinders.  The real problem is the poor design of the jabiru plenum chamber, to over come  his problem he will be fittng 6 injectors after christmas and I will be  helping him wire it and set up his fuel maps . If people are interested in how  to set up a simple electonic fuel injection I would be willing to write a  articleand send it to Buz for the newsletter.

  

 Cheers Helmut.

Wow!  Super looking airplane!  I look forward to hearing more  about your FI installation and the flight performance on your jet.  By the  way, what prop are you using?  I think you must have the first Lightning  with a three blade composite prop.  So, when you guys get the chance, I  know our readers would enjoy articles in the newsletter on the engine/fuel  injection set up and how that three blade prop is working.  

 Blue Skies,

 Buz
