This bit about sealing the tube after sloshing/draining has some
logic, but doesn't it seem to be a conflict when we leave a drain hole
at the base of the four struts, at the bottom of the landing gear, in
fuselage tubing, the horizontal stabilizers and elevators, and the
rudder? - MikeH


you have me there. I'm not sure whether you mean drain holes in the
fabric cover or drain holes in the structural tubing.
what aircraft type is this?

in any case using tubeseal wont hurt and is cheap.
