  • Progress Update, Right wing Tank install

    Got the right wing tank installed today. Lots of talk of late about locating the hole in the skin for the filler neck...needless to say I was watching and reading everything on this subject as my turn in the barrel was coming soon. Thanks to fellow Bearhawker, John Snapp, the solution was easy peasy and the results speak for themselves! See pictures... I added a .062 doubler but in NO WAY does it make up for a mis-aligned hole as the hole was in precisely the right place.

    Thanks John! <G>

    Nice job. It is tense when you cut into all that hard work

        WOW. Very precise, Dave! Did you end up using a plug with the nail through the center?
