Wings
Today I worked on the fuel pick up tubes and mounted them in the anti-rotational brackets. The plans supply four of the brackets and you have to pick out the one that works with the fuel pickup tubes after you have torqued the nuts to the elbow that passes through the tank cover plate. Once you get that in position and the tubes are bent to lie on the bottom of the tank you rivet the bracket on the cover plate. After that I mixed up some of the tank sealant and dabbed it over the rivets to ensure the seal and I also put some on the AN connections just to make sure that were sealed up and wouldn't leak by.
