Staunch Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Hi all, I am in the process of deciding which plane to purchase and build. Choices to date have ranged from Vans, sonex, and now possibly a Lightning. As for the Lightning, can anyone advise whether simple acro is a possibility? Thank you in advance for any responses!

turboplanner Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Probably best to buy a rule book first - aerobatics are illegal in RA Aircraft. Hope that was not an Australian aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgmwa Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Old thread, but recognise the name from another forum. Pretty sure he's recently picked up an RV-7 kit locally. rgmwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keenaviator Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The reg number preceded by the letter N could be a clue as to where it is. That and the accent. Laurie ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staunch Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yep, I can confirm I have purchased a full RV7 kit SB. I had seriously conisdered a number of other craft (Sonex, Sling, Lightning) before but ultimately I wanted one capable of doing extended ocean crossings with the abiltiy to do a round the world. With that in mind, the RV7 was perfect, not to mention the possibilty of aero. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
