Thanks for the kind words...

6 ohms is plenty low. In fact anything below 100 ohms is fine. Because the voltage (think pressure) must be very high in order to get a spark to jump a gap (normal static sparks are on the order of 10,000 volts) high resistances can drain off the charge before enough voltage builds up. Where you need to be careful is that you use a semiconducting funnel or a metal fuel spout when pouring into the tank. When the fuel falls into the tank and the little drops seperate from the main stream they each carry a charge which can build up a differential potential (another way of saying voltage). Thus if you had an insulating funnel then the charge differential would be between the planes fuel tank and the filling can. A conducting funnel has a high resitance that lets the charge leak slowly back to the can.
