This is very interesting. I'm wondering if static on the OUTSIDE of a wing can blow up the fuel on the inside of the wing, isn't it true that flying itself creates quite a bit of static? Especially if you fly in primer? Or is this not a factor because you are not touching the ground?

And that was just from sanding on the outside of the wing. Jeff Edwards """
