ORIGINAL: semc

I was distracted when fueling on my boomerang and did not remove the air vent plug, I had a 2ltr flight which went ok, when I opened the cover my 2ltr white spirit container was squashed totally flat, I got away with it that time but I will not do that again, or talk to anybody while preparing to takeoff. I cant imagine the problems if the tank had split open in flight.
lol, use the hose...use the hose..

jk - same thing happened to me only it was a BVM 60" F-86 and and caused a fatal crash.
