Hi All,
I would like to get some feedback on whether the cost and work to install
auxiliary tanks is worth it. My goal is to use the 701 in off airport type
flying with the possibility of putting it on floats or skis.
I had not considered auxiliary tanks until visiting Alaska and the Yukon
pulling a travel trailer this past August. One had to be aware that there
was not a filling station around every corner.
I carried an extra 6 gallons of fuel and topped up the truck a few times to
ensure I would not be on fumes before I found fuel again. I would like to
know some of the trade offs those flying the 701 have found.
Regards,
Perry

Don't think you can ever have too
much room for fuel.
Have 40 gal worth of tanks in my
701 and believe it was money
well spent. Don't often fill them
but the capacity is there when I
want it.
