I also looked into that. My good friend is a cheif engineer for Rogers Foam who 
used to supply explosion proof foams to the military for fuel tanks and others. 
His exacts words were "they got out of that business, we tried them all and 
they all shed particles that clog fuel lines"

>> A guy at work had a great suggestion. Instead of using PVC wing tanks we
could use aluminum thin walled agricultural tubing. the stuff used in the
giant traveling irrigators. It comes in standard sizes from 2 to 12 inch
diameter, from .050 to 094 wall thickness. <<

I agree, but with a question.  Would the "explosafe" type foam filler act as
a baffle?  if not, what would we use for slosh baffles?
