done that been there. best solution is hole in fuselage hose fitting glassed, small .5 inch od polyethylene tubing about 2-3 feet long with kids snot sucker taped on the end. I used a 1/2" id copper tubing to come up to and flush with the seat pan just to the right and even with the control stick. Push the polyethylene tubing out and into the wind stream. It pertudes about 1.5-2 feet away from the fuselage and provides way more suction than most males will experience in thier liftime I then rinse mine with drinking water after every use. no muss no fuss. second plane Ive done this on and will never go back

I also like using the sliding-tube-through-the-fuselage method.Â* No bags, no gel, no chance of "impacting" anyone or the environment with unnecessary waste.Â* A long slider tube or a shorter one used in conjunction with a little slip during discharge gets the urine away cleanly.Â* Can be used with a condom catheter or with a funnel.Â* A collapsible silicone funnel works great and stores well in the cramped cockpit.Â* Pour water through the funnel to rinse the whole "system", as cliff said.Â* Use a hydration tube brush occasionally to scrub the inside surfaces for extra cleaning points.Â* It's best to dedicate a brush for just that purposeÂ* Every component has been discussed multiple times probably.Â* Integrated, they make for a cheap, reliable, pee-and-forget solution.

LOL? In this thread I thought it was PML.
On the bicycle ride this morning saw an otherwise pristine '80s Ford Crown Victoria with curb feelers. It's hard to pedal uphill when laughing, and there's no pee tube on the bike.
Difficult to beat the Dodge mini-van with spinner hubcaps seen in Las Vegas.
Those wonderful accoutrements will use up a quart bag of cat litter in a flash.

Good stuff.
I haven't seen curb feelers in a long time. I see plenty of kids driving cars that could have benefited from their use.
