Brief Description:  Left wing fuel tank part #26

I grabbed the T-410 and T-405 for the inboard rib and the T-410 for the outboard rib. They were matched drilled and then deburred.

The T-410 for the inboard was also step drilled to match the T-405 for the flop tube installation. All parts were deburred and ready for install.

I also picked up the fuel vents and fuel drain fairings from http://www.jdair.com/

Also looking at their tailwheel fork and steering link as well... Very nice stuff and the fuel vents have nice screens in them to prevent insects from making their way in to clog them.

I also received two honeywell 111SM2 micro switches (http://sensing.honeywell.com/product%20page?pr_id=28866) in the mail today. I got this idea from JT McCracken on his site http://jtsrv8project.blogspot.ca/. He used the switch for his canopy to warn him if it was not fully closed. I will do the same and I will also add on to the baggage door. A T-33 taking off out of CFB Trenton on the way to Texas had the baggage door open, leading to the crash of teh aircraft.

Just another safety factor.

Waiting for my order from Van's fr some more "stuff".
