....regarding fuel pickup.
I'm guessing the fuel pickup in any fuel tank in an airplane is at the bottom. However, when a plane goes inverted, what was now the bottom of the fuel tank becomes the top and the fuel naturally drains away from the pickup. How do the designers keep the engines supplied with fuel while they're upside down?
