OK- one more question for the day... how much fuel could the Zero carry (without extra tanks!) - I'd like to put the correct amount in when I make the missions and can't find anything other than empty weights and full weights (which also includes ammo, etc.) Thanks!

145 gallons. I think it's 5 lb/gallon.

mposis, I read a doc form Tailslide that stated that fuel weighs 7.2 lbs/gal. for 100 octane. I am not sure if that applies here.

The data I got is 42 lb/cubic feet.
I comes to 5.61 lb/gallon.

Maybe the data I got is incorrect.

More importantly, what is used in SDOE, or is everything in lbs?

Those are british gallons.. I listed conversions for the different gallon types I wouldn't be surprised if you converted 1 US gallon at 5 lb/gallon it would be 7.2 under the british system. SDOE uses the US gallon.

Is the FAQ not clear on this? Should I update it?

If the FAQ is about SDOE then you should update it. Thanks.
