I've read bits and pieces about the placement of fuel pumps, tank fittings, hoses and a host of other issues regarding current and future fuels. This thread is intended to document the things we can do to accommodate alternative fuels in the future. The discussion isn't about will it happen, or not, but what do we need to consider in the building stages to give us options. After seeing a lot of the input on this site, I'm confident that there are some real things we can do as we are building to provide flexibility.
Fuel tanks, fuel pumps, weight and balance, engines, additives, sump drains are some of the issues I can think of that will need some sort of modification. Fortunately, experimentals have the flexibility to make these changes.
