I'm looking for ejection seat pyros. I believe these things are impossible to find - except expired ones. Anyone got any info or stock please let me know. Thanks ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:39:42 PM PST US From: "Ernie Martinez" Subject: L29-List: Fuel Leak --> L29-List message posted by: "Ernie Martinez" My L-29 is pissing fuel out of the overflow vent underneath. It does this every so often, I just went in my hangar and there was a puddle under the plane which wasn't there 3 hours ago. I've done nothing to the plane, it just decided to take a leak all of a sudden. I have 750 liters of fuel in the main tank currently. What would make the fuel trap fill up with fuel like that?????

If I run mine down to 600 to 650 liters, it won't leak. Marvin Mixon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roma L.
