Maybe a little less hacking and a little more clarity should be in order...? Just a thought.
But Hack away, it seems to be a thing lately with some "members". Remember the old saying, no one likes a smart azz, no one...

No policing, just thorough.
The guy has a legitimate question and could use some decent advice and ideas. One-line crappers thrown out at him serve zero to the question he has. Just say'in...

Apparently you have anointed yourself the post monitor, here to decide how one poster responds to another.

Here`s an idea: Get over yourself. Nobody needs you to jump up to defend them.

Oh good, here comes the parrot to the rescue. Actually, not sure which one is the actual parrot ???
He asked about ways to transfer fuel. Being the hot shot little plane mechanic that you love to lay claim to - I am sure have dealt with fuel transfer systems in your vasssst knowledge. OR not...
Never heard of pressurized fuel systems....Oh, too bad.

Anyway - good to see you still kicking dandan.
