Well 8 years into the restoration of XS422 we have decided to use a bit of 21st century technology and start a blog for the project.
If you're not familiar with what we're doing then XS422 is an English Electric Lightning, ex RAF cold war intercepter.
The aircraft type saw service from 1960 to around 1988, making it the longest serving airraft type in RAF service.
As the Anglo American Lightning Organisation we are returning to flight a twin seat aircraft at Stennis Airport, Kiln, Mississippi.
I've just returned from one of our occasional engineering trips to the US, more of that in the coming days.
I hope to add to this blog at least once a week and to post photographs of the restoration as well.
In the meantime, check out our website for some great pics and background.
