Hello Ron,

At the risk of sounding pedantic, what is the significance of your reference
to the "right hand pattern" ?
I suspect you are saying that because you are turning to the right, the fuel
will move away from the fuel pick up in the tank ?
This will only happen if the turn is not balanced. A slipping turn to the
right will have the same effect as a skidding turn to the left and vice
versa as far as the fuel movement goes.
It the turn is balanced, irrespective of the direction of turn, the fuel
will stay in the same place as when flying with wings level.
Cheers
Kingsley
