Default air start

Hi David,

What if you could use the automotive type tank?? this could be refilled at the field with one of those 12v compressors we use for our retracs in between flights?? Yeah, we are spoiled with our jetcats!! just trying to look at the Mamba from a different angle, simplicity and light weight. I would not be against using the auto air tank but no more hauling the scuba stuff around to get refilled etc. There are a few 12lb thrust auto start motors out there with some good reviews now and cheaper in price by hundreds, might be uphill for the Mamba.
