Default RE: Air World EE Lightning F3/6

My apologies , Jon, you are absolutely right, it is an F2A which is externally the same as a 6 ! The F2a was the RAFG Lightning. Never could work out how the F2 became an interim 6 when the 3 was, numerically, a later Lightning ! Nonetheless its a cracking good model, saw it flying at Jet power . There are some nice pictures of a MR Lightning, taken at St Athan last month, in the next RCJI flown by a friend of mine who flew the Lightning in RAF service, Ian Wilde.

Apologies for my inaccuracy !

Guess Tommy Gleisner will be flying a Lightning at next JWM

I have a Jetcat 200 looking for a home but perhaps a couple of Supersports would be very appropriate, too, particularly if the fuselage is too narrow for a single big engine.

Regards,
