Questions for who can shed some insight,
I have a 1971 Cessna 172L 180HP, I have been noticing a few things of concern.
1) When I fly I always fuel the plane after flying and I notice that more fuel pulls from the left wing then the right, its a noticeable difference and I always keep the fuel selector on "both" when I fly. Should I be concerned and what should I do to get an even burn out of both wings?
2) During unaccelerated straight and level flight the plane is in a constant skid to the left. The ball on the turn indicator is pulled to the right all the way out of the center. If I don't hold constant right rudder the plane turns to the left......my foot gets a little tired. How can I fix this?
Any advice is better then what I have now.....which is nothing lol. Thanks all!!
