afaik The Floscan uses infra red sensing so there are no magnets. Also 

no interference with avionics. The accident I'm aware of, (not a crash) 

was caused by the flow sensor that has a slit, not a hole.

 There has been one Europa forced landing (='crash', see AAIB reports) 

 due to the use of one of these particular sensors (rust/magnetite 

 particles accumulated on the magnets in the sensor, causing further 

 restriction to the fuel flow) despite a filter being present upstream.
