I agree with Graham. I am glad that I did not waste any time and weight on a
heating system. It is only cool in D-EHBT when the temperatures are below 0 deg
C. Cooling is most important as a lot comes through the fire wall.
By the way I had a strange experienced this weekend.
I was filling up with fuel from my 20 Liter jerry can as usual (In 60 hrs I have
bought only 21 Liters of Avgas). My fuel computer said that I needed about 13
Liters to fill up. After what seemed like about 5 liters the fuel was up to the
neck.
I shook the plane a bit but nothing happened. When I replaced the fuel cap there
was a pop and I heared the usual sound of air exiting the tank vent. When I
opened the filler cap again the rest of the 13 Liters went in. Has anybody else
had such an experience??
Best regards
Barry Tennant
