Attaching Fuel Tanks

August 29th, 9h

Attaching the fuel tanks was a bit time consuming.  The fitting is pretty tight, and having fuel tank sealant in the edges did not help.  So, we have to do couple trials to makes small adjusted, removing some sealant, to get the tank to fit.

Finally, we got the right fuel tank to fit pretty well.

Then we moved on to the left one. The fitting ended up pretty good as well.  However, we ended having a bit of troubles with 2 bolts going into the platenuts attaching the spar to the Z-bars.  we decided to get back to those bolts later.
