I also added a very short piece of plastic tubing which is flush with the interior wall and extends only about 1/4 inch to the outside. The curvature of the fuselage creates a slightly negative pressure in that area and water seems to drained/sucked out in fine shape. I'm sure the water got there while parked in rain storms at Oshkosh, etc. Pat Halloran ************************************** Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.
