Just got another report of a gas tank leak. I am guessing here, but it seems like there is a short period of time when factory gas tanks could not handle the rigors of aerobatics? It takes almost eight hours to pull a gas tank, another eight to stick one back in, and at least that long to put all the fabric back on.
My 1977 has never had a failure, but one in the local community got new factory tanks in 2004, and since then three failures!
