From: Colyn Case [mailto:colyncase@earthlink.net] Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2013 12:27 PM To: Lancair Mailing List Subject: Re: [LML] LNCE - Extended range fuel capacity Does anyone know why the ES tanks are so small? I know a lot of people think it's cool to be able to say a plane flies with full tanks and full seats but IMO if pilot + fuel doesn't bring you to gross the tanks are too small. The first time I saw an ES and how big the wings are I thought "Wow, wouldn't it be neat to fill those wings with fuel and make a super long range machine." I can imagine engineering considerations but I wonder if anyone knows for sure. Colyn On Nov 14, 2013, at 10:00 AM, James M.

Luckily I'm at the stage where I can add a bay without difficulty. I've checked with Lancair, and am awaiting some documentation on how to do that, but wanted to check here to see how others have accomplished the modification. My the way, this is my first post, but surely not the last. James M. Anderson, III Anderson & Ealick, P.C.
