Jay, Nice truck. Your pics said the transfer tank is 55g. Doesn't Atlas
have 84 gallons worth of tanks? Does this mean you need to make at least
one trip to the gas station for each flight? I suppose the $55 or so in
savings for each full transfer tank makes it worth it, but it seems to me
by the time you figure in all the hassle and your time, that you aren't
saving all that much?



If his plane needs an extra 25 gallons to top it off, it seems well worth
the one mile drive (round trip) to go get more gas.

"Where're you going?"
"They're handing out free $20 bills up at the corner gas station"
"Hey, wait for me!"
