Some years ago I ferried some Bulldogs from Scotland to Nigeria for the Nigerian Air Force. We used to lob into a dirt strip to top up with fuel between airports. We carried the fuel in jerry cans strapped into the passenger seats. Avoid aerobatics and open the canopy when you wanted a cigarette worked for us. Seemed to remember making a profit on the jerry cans when we got to Nigeria.
