RE: [Aus-soaring] Pawnee wing tanks

[John Orton]

Hi All,   The other Pawnee 180 to which Macca refers that Hunter Valley had is at the Gliding Club of WA and working well registered as FSJ. It has outboard wing tanks.   Regards, John Orton   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Fisher Sent: Thursday, 21 July 2005 6:26 AM To: 'Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.'

Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Pawnee wing tanks   The fuse tank is called the BBQ system!!!  to try and stop the BBQs CASA introduced the bladder in the tank or kevlar tank - but the BBQ fuel is there and leaks a bit slower.  NZCAA (or what ever their name is) insisted on wing tanks for AG work and a Ron Hewart(?) of Murray Bridge GC brought in 4  NZ Pawnees years ago BZL(burnt in keepit hangar) CUR (Jason ??) IGR (Brad Edwards) and A 180 pawnee that hunter Valley had.    The only problem with NZ wing tanks is they may crack around welds but cote it in the brown pro seal goo and it lasts forever. I heard a LAME north of Brisbane uses that stuff as a prop protector!! with success     I stand corrected but Pawnee D had inboard wing tanks or am I thinking of the Fatman      Ian McPhee ----- Original Message ----- From: Derek Ruddock To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.

Just out of interest, what benefit is there in replacing wing tanks with a fuse tank (re your previous post)   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Shirley Sent: Wednesday, 20 July 2005 9:43 a.m. To: aus-soaring lists Subject: [Aus-soaring] Pawnee wing tanks   We have two Pawnee wings with tanks installed and would like to swop two wings with a Pawnee with no wing tanks.
