Even with a small air leak the mixture would never be lean enough to burn or explode. Robert M. Simon ES-P N301ES """ So is there something we need to make sure the painters do if they are re-painting.?? I imagine that no painter would paint a wing with fuel in it - right? or do we want full fuel so there is no vapor - stupid question ?? Other than the front strut, what, where, how, else can you ground?? Is it as simple as no material under then plane and no dust removal with air? Craig Blitzer """
