    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).

So after many years of collecting parts and building up a system I finally installed a Chem trail system into my plane. This is a roll your own system all the way to the injectors I built myself. The tank is between my legs and is removable in about 20-30 minutes. I sourced the pump similar to the pump smoke system helper uses. I found the hydraulic fluid and oil transfer pump from shurflo 8050-305-526 rated at 1.5 gpm. I found a $7 brass needle valve on Amazon. I also installed a check valve. A year or so ago I built a 4 gallon tank that would fit between my legs but could also be used as a ferry tank should I decide I want that. So here are the results.
