RW, if you leave the fuel cap off a Gazelle, as you lift into the hover fuel gets sucked out of the tank straight into the engine intake.

Handy tip, when re-fuelling put the cap(s) on the pilot's seat. Hopefuly you'll then notice if you've forgotten to replace them.. . <img src="wink.gif" border="0">
