Anyone know if the collapible gasoline bags they sell
at the air shows to put in the passenger seat and
increase range can be used with the Lightning?

the structural components. We have redesigned some
of the non structural
components as well to make them lighter. Based on
the empty weights of
recently completed Lightnings we are reducing the
empty weight specification
by 25 lbs to 775 lbs. Builders can achieve this
weight for a Lightning with
VFR instruments, Becker Radios (they are light),
minimal interior finish,
and a wood prop.
