I just received word that while on final Paul Rays' Rebel experienced an
engine out. Bruse the pilot managed to make the field and land without
damage to the plane.
Cause? Fuel lines clogged with sloshing. Paul has never used auto fuel
in his plane.

Bummer !! What kind of sloshing were they using ?? Did they slosh
AFTER the tanks had been used ??

........bobp

PS Are you going to Sun 'n Fun ??
Paul said it was the "white stuff" I know he had trouble with leaks
before any fuel was put into the tanks.
Wish I could make SNF maybe next year. I sure would like to go to Alaska
once.

Hi Bob,
Curt here. I sure do appreciate the hospitality that Anna and you gave
Dave and I. The ride home was uneventful, as the Dave factor appeared to
have
run it's course with the tire problem. It still leaked, but it was slow
enough for the 1 1/2 hr we were airborne. That brings up a question. Have
you
had any corrosion problem with the instant flat fix and the aluminum wheels?
I was a little concerned with what had leaked out of the tube and onto the
rim. I seemed to have some effect, so if Anyone has had to add this to a
tire
and has not checked it for quite a while, I think I would be inclined to do
so. Anyway, thanks again, and see you at Sun-N-Fun.
Curt N97MR
