Larry!

The question is not how long one can fly, but it goes to the issue of turbo aux tanks. It would be good to know how much fuel one has especially if you get caught upstairs in a sudden...

Bawb!

I keep going in circles trying to figure this thing. I agree with you that you do not have to burn one hour in a turbo. Does that mean you are still going to pump the excess overboard or is...

Paul!

Looking at the diagrams, there is a difference between a 67 Turbo and 69 Turbo. But, I think the only defference is the type of fuel guages we have. However, when I look at the diagrams,...

BAWB

Good idea. I do not think this is my problem because there is only one vent tube. The main tanks work fine. So we have to dig a little deeper on any thoughts concerning the use of fuel in...

I agree with the concept that the excess fuel returns to the manifold and not the aux tanks. If you look closely at the diagram the arrows going back to the mains and aux tanks are white. The other...

Paul!

Are you saying your turbo returns the excess to your aux tanks? Or do you not have any excess left in the aux tanks when you refill?
