Hey guys!
Just something I noticed.
Tonight I experienced a problem with my left tank in my 737-800 flight from Miami to Washington National.
For my luck I handled the aircraft really well and got to my destination just fine.
But while I had the failure, I couldn't fix it at all. I would close the fuel pumps on the tank that was bad and still it would lose fuel.
So for what I see it was a leak that the tank had.
Fortunately I landed safely but it cost me 980 thousand bucks to fix it!
Anyways surprising failure for a plane I always maintain it well and pay the maintenance expenses.
Excelent product Dan,
