NOTE:
As a conservative approximation, add 1 litre of water in
the expendable tail tank for every 30 litres of water in the
main inboard wing tanks.
WARNING:
The tail tank should always be filled based on the CG
calculation as described in Section 6. Under no
circumstances is it permitted to fly with the CG aft of the
rear limit.
CAUTION:
The filler caps must always be locked finger tight only.
Excessive torque may damage the edges of the filler
caps.
