I added a post a few days ago regarding the paranoia surrounding the use of copper fuel lines, only to find it has been deleted.
Is this happening to anyone else? PK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) btw the gist of the post was that aircraft would probably vibrate about a hundred times more in ten hours of operating time than any 914 would in it's entire lifespan. All the vibrations in aircraft are retained in the airframe and transmitted throughout it. Properly supported 914 fuel lines do not vibrate, and properly installed copper replacement fuel lines are probably less of a liability than the original plastic. There are quite a number of cars that have had the plastic fuel lines replaced with copper and no issues. |
