Andy at Europa is working on a mod to add fuel drains and he says that
they will either sell them as an option or provide blueprints. Fuel
drains are compulsory in NZ so the five builders here are rather pleased
about this development. The idea, I believe is to have a coverable recess
just behind the bulkhead that will house both fuel drains.
Now, how about coming up with a carb heat modification that is also
compulsory in NZ :-(
