Also - from today's Seattle Times...(NOTE the preamble "
Information in this article, originally published May 25, 2006, was corrected on May 25, 2006. An earlier version of this story said that a proposed new FAA rule on aircraft fuel tank safety won't apply to Boeing 727 jets because they have no center fuel tank. In fact 727s do have a center fuel tank. The rule will not apply to them because the tank is not near a heat source.")
