Raimo,

To heck with pictures of fuel selectors.  I want to see pictures and 
movies of the BF-109G!!  Is it as difficult a beast on takeoff and 
landing as rumored?  Tell us more!

Alan,

this mine.

When building, my logic was:

- "MAIN" (open) is blue (one neutral colour and blue skies) and pointing 
forward (because normally you wanna fly forward!)
- "RES" (reserve) is green (the colour with an inbuild good hope) and 
pointing upp (because in the case of fuel lack you probably wanna go upp 
not down)
- "CLSD" (closed) is red (the colour which is alarming) and pointing 
backwards (because in the case you wanna close your tap you do not wanna 
fly anymore)
- position downward not possible to select for clarity

Switchable in =BD second.

Backplate is aluminium and carved /colour filled.
