Hi Paul,
I am receiving your email's now.
Paul what do you know about the White lighting.
I have looked to buy one for some years. this week I found one newrly completed in Australia, I was to late as it was advertised three weeks ago and I have been out of Australia.
This plane sold for $105,000-00 Aus last week.
I would have liked to buy and fly this plane whilst I complete my current project in the Rotary Cozy.
I have located a full kit for the White Litghning in Greenville South Carolina and was wondering if any of the group could check it out for me.
I don't wish to fly to the US at this time and I am try to limit my business travel also.
This would be a great plane for a turbo rotary.
What are your thoughts on the above.
I would also like your or one of the groups comments on the White Lightning.
Regards Don

The White Lightning is a fast airplane, however, the designer is perhaps 5'8" tall and he must have sized the fus for himself. I sat in the first airplane with the hatch open and about
3 or 4 inches of my head was outside the profile of the fus.  Perhaps something could be done to lower the seat or space the fus halves apart to add some height to the cabin.
