Re: Fi 156 with unusual plates on the undercarriage

Not saying you are wrong, but could they really have chosen such a strange place for fueltanks?
First of all you would need a pump to get the fuel to the engine and secondly what is the point to have such an incredible small amount of fuel as an extra bonus?
Since the Storch was on top an excellent rough area field machine, having fuel tanks on the landing gear, which was the main part that took up all the rough momentums, would make them particularly vulnerable to any rough country side landing.
Just my thoughts
