For tri-gear aficionados, note that the Europa drain kit calls for the
drains aft of the baggage area, and that may be a bit above the lowest
part of the tank on the tri-gear.  Worse methinks for a gascolator
there, unless you hang it down in the breeze.  I mounted fuel drains
under the seat pans; less plumbing anyway.
