I am about to fly my 9A.
Just curious the procedure for landing with low fuel after a long cross country.
6 gals is still about 45 mins of reserve, so it is possible to be landing with only 6 gals left in one tank.
If I forward slip, or land wing low, due to a cross wind, am I at risk of uncovering the fuel pickup?
Or does a low fuel approach require a different landing technique?
