    Gang, It was a pleasure to meet so many Commander owners and enthusiasts in Carson City. The collective knowledge in the room was amazing and well worth the trip. Hats off to the "extra" skill sets some of you clearly possess. Like classic car acquisition, prison inmate relations, law enforcement communications, and in Morris' case, reselling the same brake parts! Dinner with R.A. (Bob) Hoover was special. Thanks to Jim (and wife), and John Towner for getting it all done. I have a technical question on my fuel system (560F) which begs some expert response. Problem. After fueling the main tank to 100 gallons, and the aux tanks to max (32.5 gal), I let plane sit overnight. The next day, 5 to 10 gallons is missing from the rt aux, but appears to have "drained" into the main. The parts manual shows no common route in my book for this kind of "cross-feed". So far, my solenoids have all been rebuild, and the vents checked to make sure they are clear. Any ideas what the problem is? Regards and thanks again for a great time. Craig

    Fellow Commander Folks, This really was a super Commander get together! If anyone is interested the 1988 Oldsmobile that Buddy and I purchased was sold for $ 250.00.

    Craig; I have the same problem with my 560E, if I let it sit for awhile, the right wing tank drains some fuel into the main. I just don't fill the wing tanks until I am ready to go fly and then use them first down to about 15 gals each which is my emergency fuel. I too would be interested in why, I have figured its just an O ring someplace.
