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?

I'm wondering if anyone has researched/thought about fuel containment in the event of a crash.
For example, I have foam in my aux tank because it was made by fuel safe and that's just the way they make their tanks. I didn't put any foam in my main tanks. But here's a possibility:

A fuel dump option might also be interesting but that leaves highly explosive fumes in the tanks.....
thoughts?
