>George Moffatt once had a system of pumping mercury in a Nimbus 3.

Wouldn't want any of that liquid metal stuff going near the metal pushrods or 
fittings. Mecrucy does unpleasant things to aviation alloys.
If he had a prang, cleaning up the liquid mercury might be fun.

And isn't pumping mercury around a bit OTT anyway?
