Part of that story should've read I had 50 gallons in the left tank and 10

In regards to the Blue foam we still slurry it on all composite airplanes to
prevent delamination.
CH you are so right about just adding too much fuel. You only have so much
power and so much wing area. Also consider the consequences if you ha
Hi there,
