English term or phrase: Tab bottom/Tab slot
Prezados,

Alguem poderia me explicar o mecanismo. Trata-se do abastecimento de combustivel em um aviao e ambos tabs estao indicando (suspeito eu), o nivel de combustivel no tanque localizado na asa da aeronave.

Obrigada desde ja.

Contexto:

If the fuel is at the bottom of the tab, there is 27 gal usable. If more fuel is added to the tank and the fuel reaches the level of the red slot in the tab, then you have 32 Gal usable.

Explanation:
Aviões pequenos tem um `medidor visual´da capacidade do tanque de combustível que consiste numa placa ou decalque afixado perto do bocal de abastecimento. Acho que se trata do avião de pequeno porte `Bonanza´
