Guest Decca Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hi Dick, welcome to our forums here down under. I had a quick look at the flylightning.net website, & it's a nice looking aircraft. How long did it take to build? Did you use the builder assist program, & has your airplane got the jab 3300 engine? Regards, Decca. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n213rc Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hi Guys All lightings in the US have the jabiru 3300. The fire wall forward kit was designed for the Jabiru. The rotax weighs more costs more and requires more maintenace. I used the builder assist program at ksyi (shelbyville TN) and it went well. I lived there in my vw van (using there shower). I was there a week starting July 2 and came back after painting and did the plumbing and wiring. flew home Nov 7. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
