Another question. Bear with me.

VFR equipment requirements specify one fuel qty indicator for each tank (or 
some similar language). Now, my 415C only has a fuel qty indicator (wire and 
cork) in the main tank, not in the wing tanks. I think this should meet the 
requirements because the way the fuel system works.

My concern is that I am preparing for my checkride and I don't want the 
examiner to reject the plane because it does not have a fuel qty indicator on 
each tank.

1. How do you people have your planes? Just an indicator on the main tank, or 
indicators on the 3 tanks?

2. Is my interpretation correct that having a single indicator in the main 
tank meets the purpose of the regulation? 

3. Has anybody been on a checkride with a single tank indicator? Did the FAA 
examiner ever complain or comment about it?

 Thanks
