Review of fuel system and examination of nature and extent of fuel contamination problem; one of most visible effects of microbiological attack is formation of solid matter, producing serious risk of clogging in downstream parts of fuel system, particularly at filters and screens; recommendations made with regard to protection of aircraft integral fuel tanks against corrosion by means of protective coatings; studies carried out have shown that although limited use of biocides has been successful, best control is by elimination of stagnant water from fuel supply system and aircraft fuel system.
