Hello all,

I'm evaluating some plans and want to find / see plans or photos of an aircraft that gives the builder the option of wet-wings or not.

The plane is all-aluminum and has a center mounted tank, but I'd like to increase the available fuel capacity but...

A - Do not like the look / fit of the optional wing tip tanks.
B - Tubular tanks alongside the spar aren't 'efficient enough'.
C - RV's nose rib tank design may not work for my application...more delving into it will be needed.

Thanks in advance for the advice and direction.

Kevin
