Airplane burning? Lol, I feel feel the same way sometimes. Let me know when you do this so I can join in the bonfire

I gotta add my "+1" to the comments that recommend draining the tank before storage. You're just asking for a (flammable!) mess in your hangar, not to mention potential airframe damage & malfunctions.

One additional point- it seems like the front bearings of many / most glow engines can benefit from being stored nose-down. The leftover oil will flow to the bearing that way, preventing rust / corrosion / etc. I store all my craft nose-down.
