Bob Cook is an unknown quantity at this point
re long range tanks

Jim

Believe that '75 was the first year for the 888 lbs tanks were installed AS AN OPTION. The factory did upgrade some 337's to long range tanks that were built in '74 of which mine was one. Apparently is was major surgery.

There must be a label at the filler neck to indicate qty (regulation). I think the tank that was added is on the outboard part of the wing and not the inboard as you mentioned. I do not have the manuals in front of me and going by memory. Check the equipement list from the factory that should tell you. Maybe the option wasn't purchased.

What is the serial number ?

Long range tanks makes a BIG difference.

Bob
