With the new Lightnings having the extended range, is

it possible to convert an old Lightning with the 8

gallon less tanks to long range?   One day I would

love to be able to fly to Europe but am going to need

more gas to do so. Is it possible to just have an

extra tank in the cabin, like in the passenger seat,

that has a rubber hose feeding one of the tanks??

 have added a page dedicated to the newsletter and a

 link to the owners and

 dealers map.

 

 As before, I will be maintaining my build log on my

 Kitlog site which is at

 I'm getting really close now.

Putting a bladder tank in the seat next to you has been done many time by

people.  I would also imagine that you could change out your wings with the

newer set that has the larger tanks.  Since your bird is solid white, this

would be easy from a paint perspective too.
