components and describe their general
functions.
ANSWER: Aircraft fuel tanks are normally located
both in the wings and in the fuselage. A transfer
system (operated electrically and/or mechanically)
routes fuel to a central point for further routing to the
engine. Fuel system gauges indicate rate of fuel flow
and fuel remaining. Refueling is normally
accomplished by pressure and/or gravity methods.
