Goff,
I just returned from my hangar where I discovered that the fuel tank on my
tri-gear was also leaking and also on the starboard side. The plane only
has a little over 100 hours on it. I hope I won't have to replace it!
Please let me know what you learn about repair or replacement.
Thanks,
Dale Hetrick
