ALL,

     Another beautiful day at Oshkosh.  A few  aircraft are arriving (mostly early volunteers) and there seems to be lots of  flying activity at Pioneer Airport and of course all around the AirVenture area  getting ready for next Monday.  I still don't have my Gator, so spent  part of the morning changing a fuel filter on a diesel engine.  (Once  again, engineers don't seem to design things with the mechanic in mind.)   Then drove up to Brennand Airport north of Oshkosh to have a look at Stephen  Hacker's Lightning project.  Steve flew with Nick at Sebring and decided to  do a builder's assist program with Tom and Al here in Wisconsin.  The  airplane is coming together nicely and I will have some photos in the next  newsletter.  Steve is being assisted on his build by one of his daughters  (Lesley) and also by some Brennand regulars, Dan Jones and Peter Carlson.   The aircraft is painted, the panel is ready to install, and the wings are almost  ready to install.  Colors are white, green and gold (copper) which I  obviously think is a great color combo.  The guys here are kidding Steve  about being a Green Bay Packer's fan.  But being from Minnesota I am pretty  sure he cheers for the Vikings.  

 Blue Skies,

 Buz

 Go Cowboys!!!!

Buz,

 Nice report from the "front".  I'll be looking forward to your updates.  Work is getting in the way of a trip to Oshkosh this year, but I'm planning on being at the 3rd annual fly-in in Septermber at SYI.  Afterall, I do believe I have one of the fastest lightnings...

 Right on Bear.  That's the spirit and the type of challenge we hope  many of the other Lightning builders will throw out.  Who really does have  the Lightning bragging rights for being the fastest for the next 12  months.  And I am sure Nick and his crew will come up with some unique  prizes as well.  

  

 Yes folks, this is going to be the Lightning fly in that you don't  want to miss.  Fun, flying, food, and good old hangar talk.  Heck, you  might even get to see a "Speedo" dash by a masked  celebrity.  Wow, did you see that?  You definitely need to plan to be  at SYI on the weekend of 25-26 September.

 Be there, aloha,

 Buz
