For some reason I can't shake this vision of something streaming out the
window and getting caught in the right horizontal stabilizer/elevator hinge
margin. Could make for a VERY interesting flight!!

Maurice Kirk, who is trying to fly his L-4 Cub around the world,
thought he could jettison his empty gasoline jerry-jugs en route from
New Zealand to Australia. He let the first one stream back but
couldn't maneuver it past the flying wires on the tail.

Then he had the task of hauling it back in. His flight almost ended
right there.
