    Bought my own dipstick because the ones in the flight school and rental planes occasionally disappear. Since the fuel gauges in the cockpit are so unreliable, a dipstick is the only trustworthy way to determine fuel level. Wouldn't preflight a plane without one.

    have to press very hard to seal top of tube to hold fuel or it leaks out fast

    This thing works GREAT. Foolproof design. Excellent construction

    Cons

    None that I can see. The only one is that if you don't have your finger tightly against the top it will give you a false low reading that is hardly ever a concern.

    A pilot had just returned the aircraft that I wanted to fly. My flight was only to last one hour. My pre-flight showed the fuel was down several inches from the top. I used the fuel gauge and determined that I had 32 useable gallons left, plenty for a one hour flight. Very nice to know exactly how much fuel is on board.

    Takes the worry out of fuel quantity estimation. You know exactly how much fuel you have and whether you need to fuel the plane or not. Excellent value for the money.

    Cons

    I don't know if the product can take rough handling.

    General Comments

    I always hated looking into the tanks and trying to estimate fuel quantity. Now I don't have to.
