Xactly. I know of an RV6 where they installed a selector with a both"
position "in the interest of safety" How it got past the DAR I have no
idea, but it crashed on it's second flight........


I have lots of time in YAK-52s, no tank selector at all, just
a fuel ON/OFF switch. Works very well.



Must have some system to get around the problem. It has wing tanks?
Or dos it feed to the engine out of a header tank which is in turn fed by
the wing tanks?
