Fuel tank outlet fitting mod.
#7
When I check out a Rotorway that I have not previously inspected, I grab the fuel outlet fitting/fuel line connection and see if it will rock back and forth in the fuel tank. If it is not solidly fastened to the fuel tank and allowing any movement at all it needs to be checked out to insure that the internal washer mod has been installed. Also regarding running out of fuel that Homer mentioned, do not trust your fuel gauge, know how much fuel you have prior to your flight by using a dip hose and then time your flight so that you know when you need to land with the required reserves.
