The idea of connecting the inner and outer tanks with a large pipe and a one

flow restrictor between the tanks and not a valve.  This now becomes a
single tank with a baffle.

single tank with a baffle, one return line per tank in a convenient
location, one fuel cap per wing, and one vent.

       Sounds like a real good idea!
