Does anyone out their have any experience with a Lightning Bug.  I ran
across one that I think I can pick up cheap allowing me to stay current
and
more importantly FLYING until my Long EZ is finished.

There is a reason you can pick it up cheap.  It is a very hot little
piece
of equipment, and as I understand it, is a handful to fly.

As I recall, the designer was quoted as saying that an engine out event was
a mandatory bail out situation. This due to the very high landing speed.
