Default RE: mitake, again?

Hi Bill.
In reply would suggest that I am not wrong as indicated, perhaps not
thorugh or complete enough with the description.
Obviously I did not consider atmospheric pressure but is that really a consideration when you understand that something suspended sees this
pressure on ALL sides?
We generally see atmospheric pressure in relation to earth or the planet
but must realise it is a force created by the weight of the armosphere. At sea level about 15 lbs per cubic foot? If you raise a bit above earth the
pressure might be 10 lbs but what ever the amount the same force effects anything suspended in it on all sides.
Thus in the case of a fuel supply in flight the only effect is to condense
the liquid?
Fuel flow at the needle valve (Will cover that with another post) Darn
idiot box will shut this off and lose the effort, OK>?
