Looking at the Skybolt fuel system schematic shown on another thread, the Skybolt fuel tank is similar to a Starduster tank with the separate inverted reservoir in the bottom. Question is where does Skybolt recommend the separate upright and inverted vent lines be run to on the plane? I've been told the Starduster system doesn't need all those separate vent lines, rather just do them like the Christen Eagle, but I don't know how the Eagle is done either.

The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.
