Potential daft question here, but treat me gently.
Lets assume that fuel is sloshing around in the bay, would expelling it by opening the bay doors help? I know that it wouldn't stop the leak and as you descend, you only add more air to the equation, but would getting rid of a lying pool of fuel serve any benefit? And would instantly expelling the fuel source as it leaked into the area help? Or would the mere physical act of opening the doors create a possible ignition source?
