The Company is pleased to announce that we are now using a system of collapsible tanks which offer tremendous improvement over prior solid tank systems. These tanks have been in use in Australia for several years. Planes & Parts has satisfied Transport Canada that the collapsible tanks meet the guidelines of MSI 45 which is the document now in use in Canada to allow the temporary installation of fuel systems in aircraft for a Ferry Flight Authorization
The picture above shows three tanks installed in a DHC6, for a total of 1000 USG in the cabin, which is the required fuel to cross from California to Hawaii. The entire system including tanks, hose, valves, pumps, straps, and shipping containers, weighing less than 150 lbs. The system can be installed in approximately four hours and removed in less time.
