Yesterday I went flying and during my preflight check I went to drain fuel out of my left tank to find that nothing was coming out. I had 33 litres or 8.8 US gallons in it after my last flight. My tank doesn't leak and there was no signs of Avgas leakage on the grass below the wing. At least the person had the decency to replace the gas cap. The cost of my 33 litres or 8.8 US gallons at the current rate was $69.76.
I'm pretty sure everyone does this but goes to show you that never assume you have fuel in your tanks before you go flying.
Has this ever happened to anyone else and can you get locking caps for the RV-4.
Thanks and safe flying everyone.
