Yea, but what about the go around when that
C-150 pulls out right in front of you on short final after a long flight.
Light weight, low fuel, steep climb angle, lots of P factor, tired
pilot.
< It seems to me that the fuel will slosh in the
same direction as the ball, usually to the
right.>
"Yea but.. yea but".... sounds like a student pilot. ;)
The fuel would slosh IF it were not for the anti slosh flapper valve in the
inboard wing designed just for that reason. You did install it in your wing,
didn't you? Remember, you will be tested for systems knowledge on your private
pilot checkride by the nasty know it all examiner. LOL ;) "Question, "what keeps
fuel from sloshing away from the fuel pickup point when a Cessna 150 pulls out
right in front of you on short final? Answer the anti slosh flapper
valve."
