Don't forget also that the header tank sump in a 415 is lousy. That is,
there isn't any :-)  H20 and other non-flammables can lurk around
the corners and get sucked down in flight, at random intervals.
That flat bottom with corners is just terrible.

I've heard it recommended that you periodically set a couple of sand-bags
on the tail and rig up a siphon arrangement with a hard tube (like you use
to vacuum fish-tanks). Let it sit for a while, and then 'vacuum' out the
bottom-rear seam and corners to suck out any water or debris from
the header tank.
