Colyn,

I looked at the sight and can't find out any information about how much =
room (volumetric) the foam occupies, weighs and costs. I think that all =
of these pieces of information are important. I hate it when a company =
only tells you how good their product is and leaves out all of the other =
important information.

I would hate to double my weight and cut my fuel in half, all for a lot =
of money.

After all, if the money were not important, why not just buy the T-1A =
trainer. It already has the foamed tanks.

Do you know any of this information?

Lorn
