Default AeroStar Fuel system?

Could someone fill me in on the Aerostar fuel system? The one in
question is a 602P.


IIRC, Ted Smith designed it as a "Leave it alone and burn all the fuel
in the airplane" type system.


But wasn't there a lawsuit over one years ago?


There's lawsuits over EVERYTHING in the air at one time or another.

I seem to remember, a looooong time ago, perhaps right after Piper
resumed building Aerostars that an AD came out that required separate
fuel gauges to be installed. The result was the three fuel gauges now
seen at the top and center of Aerostar panels.

Now . . . I could be completely wrong, and if I am, I hope someone
with a lot more Aerostar knowledge will add to this thread.

Take care . . .
