Default UAT contamination

Thanks, I know most of us rely on a filter AFTER the pump, and perhaps one or two in the fueling station.......

so, and I am just speculating here, is it possible for dirt/dust to enter through the main tank vent on the jet..? Should modelers be thinking of some sort of filter for the vent line? This could raise a whole new set of concerns about getting clean air in the tank without causing a vacuum, and fuel starvation... Again, I am only speculating....I am just about to lay the plumbing for my first jet, so this comes at a very appropriate time.....

Thanks....
