Re: [Titanaircraft] Two questions

The original S models were deigned to have fuel tanks in the wing. There
are several out there that were built that way. Total fuel is about 25
gals (4x5 gal tanks in the wings, 1x5 gal "header" behind the rear seat.)

The tanks are outboard of the center box so the flap mechanism is unchanged.
