Aug 18, 2022     Fuel tank mock up/fit - (8 hours)       Category: Wings
Today was a good, long day of fitting the fuel tank and all its pieces to the spar to make sure it aligned. The Z brackets the bolt the tank to the spar just a short time ago in the past came completely un drilled. That meant the builder had to align everything and very carefully drill the holes for the ribs and bolts. Well folks, I'm here to tell you that Vans has stepped up yet again and have begun sending ALL of these Z brackets drilled for every hole needed and not just drilled, but FINAL SIZE hole drilled. This has taken a crap ton of time and head scratching out of this particular build phase. THANK YOU SO MUCH VANS!! Z brackets were cleaned up a bit and platenuts riveted to them.
