You use your main fuel tanks before the tips?
I've never flown a 6, just asking.
Typically we top the tips (which gives about 2 hours in the air) then add as necessary to the mains. Most of our runs are pretty short (longest regular trip is 1.5 round trip) so we really don't need to carry a lot of gas. Once the wx starts getting interesting no doubt we'll carry more.
