Alltrikes

There's a number on the trike,  maybe it is used for fuel limited events in competition.  perhaps jozinko knows these guys?

Ken, that’s what I noticed too and about the liters or gallons, not sure. Wexfordair is right, the pic is a screenshot I took from a competition. 

I dont know the guys, but I saw on youtube the video description. There are Russian team over LaManche canal. The trike is Apollo DJ trike with Suzuki engine, made by Air Trikes Enterprises Canada www.airtrikes.net. Maybe Vassili can give us more info. I think it is in liters add tank

Congratulations! Well done. 

Great job Dave.  Thanks for sharing. Makes us all do a double triple check.

You did a great job Dave.  Yes, it could have happened at a worse time in your flight.  Over the years I have had quite a few engine outs and almost all fuel related but all of them were in true ultralight trikes where total mass and sink rate is lower so usually a bit more time to search for a suitable LZ and landing speed is lower as well.  Hope I never have to deal with an out of fuel engine out in my Scout.  I do periodically practice engine off landings but none of them have been off field.  When I first got my current trike I did as Ken described, adding one gallon at a time with sharpie marks.  I highly recommend doing that for any one that has a translucent tank.  Dave this kind of experience helps to build confidence that you can handle a real engine out, but we should never get so confident that we become complacent with fuel level checks.

Wow...good job Dave. Just seeing this for the first time. Very fortunate you had some landing options.
