				Lightning community,
      As I promised a while back,  the latest Lightning Newsletter, "Hangar Talk", Issue 6-1 is attached in PDF  file format for everyone to download and read.  If for some reason you can  not download it, Nick will soon have in published on the Lightning Web site  along with the other past newsletters at:  (http://flylightning.net/Newsletters.htm).  
      This is the first newsletter  to be published in over a year, so there is a lot of news to cover, especially  news from the factory.  Also covered are the recent Sebring Light Sport  Expo, some photos from last year's Lightning Homecoming, news from builders and  flyers, reader feedback, upcoming events (like Sun N Fun), Safety, tech  tips, Lightning skunk works, and a few other items.  I hope everyone  enjoys this issue.  
      I agreed to write this  newsletter to help out the factory guys since they are way too busy to publish a  newsletter on a regular basis.  This will be the 37 issue that I have  produced, the original 36 issues starting back in Feb 2008 were fun and allowed  me to meet lots of the Lightning community.  However, we need someone  else to volunteer to take over the newsletter position.  The only required  qualification is that you be interested in the Lightning and want to share the  info you get from the factory and other readers with the rest of the Lightning  community.  You will enjoy the experience and the chance to share  information with lots of interesting people.  Please give it some  consideration and contact me or  Nick and Mark at the  factory. 
      I hope to see many of you at  Sun N Fun - about two weeks away.  
  Blue Skies,
  Buz

				Best News Letter of the  year!  As every one is asking, where can I get a horizontal stabilizer kit,  when and how much?  If the wind would slow down
  a bit I wouldn’t have so much cross wind landing practice.  Bob Haas,  S/N 071 N330BH.

				Buz,
 
      Another great newsletter!  I admit that I skipped over the reports from Clive, Bernardo, and a couple others but the information you provided was great.  I finally got the Cub back to AKQ and the Lightning back to FKN on Saturday.   We are still looking for a Scott 2000 tailwheel in good shape if you happen to hear of one.   A couple of people at the breakfast on Saturday said they might have one and are looking.    The price and the exorbitant backorder time (40 weeks) has killed our plan to buy one from Aircraft Spruce or Univair.

				Sorry I didn't get you any information on my Spar Box replacement, but I am still working on it.  I finally pulled the wings last week.  This week I intend to pull the gear and then the spar box.  I am still waiting on my seat rails (my side rails were glassed in) that are supposed to be drop shipped.    I hope they show up soon.  I had to build a wing cradle and now I need to build a table to align the gear in the new spar box like you show in the newsletter.  I think it will take me as long or longer to do this repair than it took me to build the plane at Green Landings.
 Blue Skies,
