Hello there...greetings from the antipodes.
I'm a newby to the forum so this is my first thread.
A group of us are building a Jodel D 18. We have the fuselage nearly completed and have built the fuel tanks out of fiberglass. We were wondering what the current best practice is for mounting the fittings. Also, the plans call for the fuel lines to be made out of alloy pipe with flexible forward of the firewall. We were considering using flexible throughout . Perhaps somebody could give us an explanation of what the current thinking is on this.
Cheers Nick.
