 Wayne,

    I feel your pain.  I only got to fly other

 people's planes and never owned one of my own.  When

 my life is less hectic, then I plan to do a

 Lightning video.  I never got a chance to make the

 live action video that I had planned, but instead, I

 think now I will make a video more of a photo slide

 show.  I've got plenty of photos, and I've got the

 music that I wanted to put on the other video, now I

 just need the time.  Brian W.

 Photos cam through fine thanks Brian.  I can start

 wall-papering my office wall now!

 In regards the newsletter – I’m hanging out for

 photos/videos of finished Lightnings being used –

 for local fun or for cross-country touring.  Perhaps

 some in-flight video shot from the cockpit while

 over something worth seeing.  My build will probably

 take 12 months after the kit arrives in Australia –

 so such photos/videos of completed aircraft doing

 their thing would really help me through the build!

 Wayne,    Should be around 1530 lcl there if I did

 that right.  Just wanted to check and see if you got

 your 3 photos that I sent via email.  Nothingbounced

 back so I assume it worked, or I overloaded your

 email account and you can't log back in.  Brian W.

 Perth is 8 hours ahead of GMT.  Getting our heads

 around USA time is harder – the shortest distance

 and timeframe crosses the date line.  It is 8.40pm

 Thursday here at the moment.

  

 I look forward to receiving the photos!

 Wayne,   I've got a couple, let me find them and

 I'll send you an email to your personal addy.  I

 might be the only one up in the U.S. on the board at

 this hour.  3a.m. here.  What is your conversion to

 Hi Tom & Al

  

 Would it be possible for you to email me a higher

 quality photo of your aircraft in flight (Arion

 Intro Page) and taxying.  I have just ordered my kit

 and I’d like to print larger copies to pin up on my

 office wall to keep me going!

 Lightning Weight and Balance

  

 

  In the past there have been requests for weight and

 balance data for the Lightning.  Keep in mind that

 this is anexperimental and therefore your aircraft

 will depend on what you put into it.  I typed up a

 weight and balance from thedemonstrator.  I know

 that this will get out of order when I put it in an

 email, but if you want the info it shouldn't be too

 hard tofigure out how to get it spaced back out

 right.  It should give you an idea of how much you

 can carry and where you can carry itBrian W.Aircraft

Charles,

   As of two weeks ago I am signed off to take my CFI checkride.  As of about  1 week ago and 6 days I am unfortunately temporarily grounded due to being very sick.  I am hoping to get the results of some tests back and then have a few more to go through, but if it is as they think it'll pretty much keep me grounded for another month or two while I get over this.  After that I fully intend to go up for my checkride and be certified in the short term.  Then plan on CFII by early next year if I can make the time and money.  My reference of flying other peoples planes was in reference specifically to the Lightning aircraft and not owning one of my own.  Brian W.
