My aircraft (Taylor-monoplane) is limited to 6 gallons of fuel in the header tank per print and without a wing tank the flight time is very limited. I plan on putting cylinder type tanks behind the front spar in my Diehl wings and my header tank holds only 3.6 gallons. Any aircraft fuel supply should be inspected closely before every flight not just every now and then
