I'm just fooling around with the brand new Milviz Cessna 310.

Something that many (most) folks aren't aware of is that the "tip tanks" on the C310R are the "main tanks!" The aux tanks are located in the wing lockers.

As a resut of this unique situation, as the fuel sloshes around in the main tanks, the a/c exhibits a sometimes pronounced "dutch roll" even during level flight...  ;D
