ok guys, as it says I’m the subject line, how many have a fuel filter in the plane and how many do not? And what’s your reasoning for each?

I’m 50/50, my fuel is filtered 4 times before it gets to the turbine. Felt pick up in filler supply tank, Filter on supply line on my filller tank, UAT has a filter then I have the “standard” filter in line before the turbine.

So I’ve seen many guys cut out the standard fuel filter before the tirbine and feel that the filter in the filler tank and UAT are sufficient.

I have cleaned my filters on other jets and have never seen that filter dirty. Sure the filter in my main filler tank is gets dirty though, but the little inline filter is always clean. The filters in my A10 are friggin burried deep in the plane and will be a huge PIA to service. So I was questioning the need for them.

Whats everyone’s take?
