Is it possible to replace the stock CJ resistance unit with a bendable capacitance
fuel probe that would allow the display of the actual fuel when full vs 60
liters. Has anyone tried this?

Guys,
Sender probe location and wing dihedral make a full tank reading impossible
with electronic probes. A new hole in your fuel tank at the outboard most
point would be required.

Gang,
I've been asked by a friend and customer to send out this plea for help.
He lives in Driggs, ID on a hangar home in a beautiful development.
They have just completed the home only to run into the City who is
threatening, now, to remove their runway access
privileges....essentially destroying not only the value of their homes,
but also their retirement. If you can help or know anyone that has any
experience dealing with FAA/City/Airport issues and would be interested

Tom and Barry--
Having spent many years in the land development business I can tell you it
is a mud hole not for the faint of heart or weak of wallet. Lots of pigs
therein who like the mud. Finding knowledgeable people is not easy, but as
your friend has probably already figured, he needs a good land use attorney.
The chore is to sort through local development regulations and whatever
conditions may have been attached to the land use permits that allowed
development of the airpark in the first place to see what regulations
apply/ied and what permit limitations may have been imposed that could pop
up and bite. Often these sorts of things are done with a legal mechanism
called a "Conditional Use Permit" or something similar, that often are
approved on the "condition" that they be "compatible" with surrounding land
uses--whatever that means. Of course, "compatibility" is a moving target.
Needless to say, politicians, nosy neighbors and money are a big part of the
equation. The FAA is probably not involved unless federal money has been
used for the airport. I can't figure it out, but airports don't generally
engender a lot of support and enthusiasm from surrounding land owners. Hey!
I know! Maybe if you take them all for a ride in one of your nice CJ's they
ll get the picture! You might even sell a few! And, a little proactive PR
and respectful give and take often works wonders. Among other things, most
of us don't like being pushed around by politicians or big money out for a
killing (the usual inferred bad guy motivation) and a little public
education never hurts. 'Course, we're often seen as spoiled rich kids
trying to take over the sand box, average non-flyers not realizing we're
just a bunch of struggling taxpayers like everyone else. But, if you go to
any meetings you should probably leave your jet at home, Barry.
Dave Sclair is/was the publisher of General Aviation News. He was
apparently involved in some airpark development years ago, lives/d on one
near Tacoma, WA, and publishes/d an occasional section in GAN listing
airparks around the country called "Living with your Plane" or some such.
Good luck.

I got that part figures out that's why I was wondering if anyone had come up with
some and accomplished some alternate method like using the hole that's already
there at the drain.

The drain has minimal space between the wing surface and the tank plus it is
only 3/8 or 1/4 inch NPT fitting. Electronic sender probes require some
space for sealing the electronics from the fuel. Also the internal baffling
could present probe barriers. Using a probe through a tee fitting in the
fuel supply line may work better if the 1/4 diameter probe did not obstruct
the fuel flow and could be threaded through the baffling. The main issue
here then would be support for the probe tip. I think a 33 inch probe
length is available through my supplier and others.

I think that the issue in Driggs, Idaho is basically with the FAA.
The injunction against the city of Driggs is, as I read it, to prevent
the city taking action on the demands of the FAA to deny access to the
"homes in hangars" and the "through the fence" hangar homes group.
The city of Driggs, it appears, has allowed the "through the fence"
and "homes in hangars" use of the airport in spite of the fact that
this is a publicly funded (taxpayer financed) facility Such funding
is done in the form of cash grants from the FAA. It is the position of
the FAA that private homes on such an airport, or access for private
homes/hangars to such a publicly funded airport that are not available
to the general flying public is a violation of the grant compliance
restrictions that the recipients of such grants agree to in accepting
public money to build/maintain/expand their airport in the first place.
Them folks whut dun dunnit (spent their big bucks on homes and
hangars) probly got their collective tits in the wringer...
metaphorically speaking.
Roger
PS Although I strongly support those grant compliance restrictions,
if these people in Driggs want to talk to someone who got away with a
similar deal, they should talk to Bill Allen. He built multi-million
dollar hangar/homes on land leased from a publicly owned and financed
airport (Gillespie Field KSEE) in San Diego. This did not please the
FAA and they demanded action. However, somehow Allen et.al. weaseled
the deal through and the fancy homes/hangars are still
there

As a starting point, it might be beneficial for the interested parties
to read Advisory Circular 150/5190-7 which talks about through-the-fence

I'm finding that after a year of ownership that there are very few modifications
worth doing on an airplane that's been around a while. Seems that if there
was a better way the Chinese probably would have done it.
The few mods that I have; oil filter, auto spark plug kit, air filter and intake
drain seem like no brainers. Messing with an otherwise decent fuel system is
probably not worth the effort. Time and money probably would be better spent
on a FF system.

I'll put in my view on this and other subjects.
I've owned my CJ some 15 years now. Going for the extra fuel is one of
the best things I did to my plane. If you do long XC occasionally you find
it more comfortable having the gas on board for reserve. I flew the
airlines for 34 years, believe me being short on gas is not a comfortable feeling.
Than again "short on gas" is individual perception. I did not enjoy
using the VFR fuel minimums and landing with thirty minutes of fuel. You have
less alternatives and few places to divert to. Now I feel quite
comfortable with an one hour plus reserve after my normal 2 hour legs. BTW you
can
adjust the fuel senders in the tank to read very accurately at the low end
of the scale, which for me, is when you really want to know what's left in
the tank.
Airports,
Been to Allen home at SEE for a party one time while out flying the B-24.
VERY NICE!!! It would be interesting to know what kind of deal was made
for his set up.
We just finished (today) resurfacing our runway here on our airpark
(FD44). Basically we remove the top soil, graded, put on a limestone/clay base,
and re sod the whole runway with a tough hybrid grass used for golf
fairways. In 3 weeks time, she'll be ready for use. The nice thing about this,
we
didn't have to get permission or OKs from anyone. Only fighting was
amongst the different homeowners in the association.
BTW I'm now home for a while. Dropped 11 250lb bombs on 2 missions in the
B-24. Heard the rattle of a 50cal from my waist gun position as I flew
the IP to drop point. Had a P-51C for escort. I discovered that I have
claustrophobia while setting in and working the belly turret. Believe me
gentleman there is nothing like it except the real thing and this is the closest
I'll ever be able to get.

What's a FF system. Agree with all said in your post. Just curious what is a
FF system before the imagination runs wild.

Doc,
I shouldn't have said "system"... I was referring to a fuel flow transducer and
display unit
