Paul Sharp is an unknown quantity at this point
Allan, sorry to hear about your incident. But for the grace of God...

In recent years I have kept 7 gals. in each of my two aux. tanks. That way if I screw up somehow I know I still have a half-hour of flying I can get out of a switch of the valves. Sometimes for a long flight when I've topped everything off I've then run the aux. tanks dry so that I can refill them again on the ground back to the 7 gals., so it's not a foolproof scheme (as if there were something like that anyway). But I'm hoping it will save me an embarrassing day should it occur that I have to rely on the aux. "backup" at the unexpected sound of silence.
