christen oil system How does it work?

How does a christen oil system work?
Most general aviation airplanes have a wet sump system
but some ceritified for aerobatics have a dry sump or christen.

Thanks in advance.

Basically a dry sump system stores the oil in a separate area, unlike a wet system that has an oil pan slung right under the engine. The dry system uses scavenge pumps in the engine to pull oil back to this separate pan. The advantage of this system is that it can withstand G-loads without suffering from oil starvation....a very bad thing! That's why many upper scale sports/race cars have a dry sump system.

Ok

So is the christen a dry sump system?
Do any airplanes that has a wet sump system use a christen?
The reason I ask is because on the R200 (low wing aerobatic)
It does not have an inverted system.
I fly is a wet sump with a christen on it. I would ask the my mechanic, but I am not anywhere near the maintenance hangar at the moment.

Thanks.
