Manual Reference:  Page 7-7
Brief Description:  Right wing fuel tank #15

Mixed up another small batch (30 grams) of proseal, cleaned the area of the T-410 and the T-405 inside and outside with acetone on the inboard rib and wet set the rivets in place. After riveting, I completely covered both sides with proseal.

I decided to countersink the skin a little deeper. I checked a rivet and with the proseal, it's going to sit a little proud. I'll get to that later this evening.

I also prosealed the fuel pick up rivets and the anti-rotation bracket. A little more work and this tank is done! I'll head down to Princess auto for a cheap hand riveter to grind down for the Z- brackets.

I'm on course all week, and my wife has some house jobs (painting for me to do) so work on the plane will be a little light.
