Agreed that pumps are not foolproof. But then aircraft building would be
unwisely attempted by those who were not unfoolish!!
I have to say though that I`ve had more problems with a set of electronic
scales than I had with the pump (power supply that dies halfway through or
electronics that won`t boot just when everything else is ready); perhaps I
just had a bad set. Intermittent faults were always the most difficult to
rectify.
