FUEL SYSTEM
A sketch of the fuel system is given in Figure 7-15. It consists of two fuel tanks integrated
in the wing leading edge and having a 45t (11.8 US gal) capacity (total capacity is 90lt (23.7
US gal)). The engine is fed by means of an engine-driven mechanical pump and, as backup,
by an electric pump. The fuel system has a sediment bowl or chamber that is ac- cessible
for drainage.
