Ivor - I preferred the ergonomics of the Andair FS20x7 to any of the 
other models because it allows the pointer to point to the side of 
the tank that you are using, and the OFF position is symmetrically 
arranged betweeen the other 2 positions. You can see more of the 
internal tunnel arangements in my build journal on my website.

>In my opinion its idiot proof

I felt I needed even more idiot-proofing, hence the desire to have 
the selector pointer pointing at the side the fuel is being drawn 
from.

Of course, this is not a mod, since it's all Standard Aircraft Practice.

regards

Rowland
