Hi Guys
I think that before you change tanks after taxi but before power checks you
should be aware that the Rotax runs for a little while before
stopping........
P.S S & F was great. Well done Europa.

"My routine, reflected in the check list, is to switch to RESERVE before
starting the engine, and keep it there during warm-up and taxi.
At run-up, first check is to switch to MAIN, and first check before take-off
roll is to verify that it has been switched to MAIN."
So you are switching it lets say couple of hundreds times in a year?
Maybe your Andair is good enough for that but what about a poor mans
original selector?
I assume I would have soon a broken valve and a separated selector in my
hand!
