Fuel Tank and Bracing Pockets





Recent work has seen the wing tanks fitted in place and located with clecos. Similarly the pockets for the diagonal wing bracing tubes have been located and pilot drilled for riveting. The port wing is shown in the jig and the starboard wing is shown hanging against the wall.
