Dead space in water tank
Just curious about our water tank setup. It hangs exposed from the bottom just behind the landing gear, thin rectangular 40 gallon tank. The tank is supported by two angle iron bars across the botto...

It is a flaw. I had the same thing on the hybrid I used to have. I added a support in the middle and also another going across the bottom of the tank from support to support. I couldn't get all of the water but it got me a few more gallons. My biggest problem was getting all the antifreeze out of the tank. My quick fix for that was to use a 1 x 4 board. I could squeeze one end of it up between the support and tank on the end away from the pump pick-up or the drain. Then slide the board under the tank until the other end went under the other support. This lifted the belly of the tank so more water/antifreeze would come out. Do not drive with the board in there unless you find a way to secure it. This is what I did until I got another support made and installed.
