Default RE: Possible to check fuel level?

rjm,
As has been said, the majority of our tanks are pressurized by the exhaust, so a pressure switch probably won't be feasible.

The fuel also sloshes around a lot when flying, so I guess you'd need to design baffles for a tank to stop that from happening. Of course your fuel gauge wouldn't work very well when inverted.
