Just wanted to add that since I frequently fill my fuel tanks using jerry cans 
of fuel, I have added a grounding wire that trails from one of the screws of 
the landing gear and touches the ground. It is actually a piece of steel cable 
from a bicycle brake line with an eyelet on one end.
I usually get comments from visitors that I am trailing a wire. 
It is on purpose to make sure the plane is grounded when I fill the tanks from 
the jerry cans. It does not affect the flying or add weight and has to be safer 
than not having it.
