In a previous article, Prime said:
We had had our plane over 4 years when we found out quite by accident
that in our Cherokee you had to press a metal tab to get the fuel shutoff
to go into the OFF position. We had never tried it. I doubt I would have
figured it out while dealing with a forced landing....

Most people will actually read the POH before they start to fly a new
aircraft. But I guess you're just too cool to do that.
