I was wondering if anyone is building the AW Lightning and what they think of the build/kit.
Thanks,

At this time AW are still sourcing wheels. The Lightning has very narrow wheels and it's proving hard to find a commercial unit (tyre) that suits. 135mm (5 1/2") dia 28mm wide

I have a kit but no U/C yet, I understand the gear and legs are ready, just the wheels that are delaying things.

Didn't it hold the record, for a very long time, of having the highest tyre pressure of any aircraft ?

At least the model stuff presumably won't have to be nitrogen-filled ... http://www.lightning.org.uk/archive/0306.php
