: begin 644 UK1 E3404 Avro 504.jpg Don't know why I don't know this, Don't know why I haven't inquired before... What ~is~ that canister on top? Seen it on several makes/models. Is it an oiler/oil cooler? Maybe an Ale - Eron? (groan)

UK1 E3404 Avro 504.jpg - Inquiry - info requested
The gravity tank appears on 'some' 504k's. There is a main petrol and
oil tank mounted in the fuselage between the engine and the fore coclpit. Detailes drawing are in the Windsock Datafile for the 504K. If you want I can post pages or the whole thing. In these gravity tanks fuel is typically moved to the tank by the actions of a wind driven propeller operating a pump. Waldo.

(groan) Something to keep in mind is that while the 504 indeed has most of the "looks" of a modern biplane, they were first built in 1913!
