Fuel tank in progress and 2 year anniversary

Approx. 1400 hours and 2 years of building has passed.

Outboard leading edges

Both outboard leading edges is now attached to the wings.

Right side ready for rivets.


Both done

Fuel tanks (Section 18)

The fuel tank is much like the outboard leading edge, but the riveting is much more complex as it will be sealed. For now I'm almost ready preparing all parts (deburring, fluting, countersinking and dimpling). The sealant will arrive form Vans Aircraft in a few days.

Preparation of parts.


Right tank clecoed together.

A lot of holes to dimple on the skin😓
