It would seem logical to just draw gas from the lowest point of the 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	tank into a fuel line leading to the engine. But contrary to a car, an airplane can experience negative gs, and especially in aerobatics, for prolonged periods of time. So a pump connected to the lowest point of the tank would only draw fumes at some point. How is this problem solved? Thanks (again) for enlightening me, Oliver  |
