Since getting my ppl in the late 80's I have always checked fuel drains as part
of pre-flight, even when pushed to get going on business trips. On one occasion
one tank of my 182 was clear fluid which did not smell like fuel and did not
evaporate. Transpired I had about 2 liters rainwater in one tank. I will always
check water drains- it only takes a minute and from my own experience is a
minute well spent. 'to fail to look is to look to fail'.
