Default Fuel tank foam

I wonder how the safety of the foam would compare to a bladder? It would
certainly complicate the slosh issue, but might provide greater safety in
case of an incident.

I have a couple of baffles already, but having 28 gal 100LL just behind my
head makes my nerves twitch just a bit. Having the foam is supposed to
make explosive conflagration less likely in case of a prang.
