Brief Description: eyebolt cotter pins, fuel tank supports, level att
This was another day with a lot of miscellaneous tasks worked on, but most of the time was spent on cutting and fitting aluminum angles for the support of the fuel tank. also, when I got home I had received the fuel shutoff valve and in-line fuel filter I had ordered from Summit Racing. Other stuff done at the hangar included adding some washers to the rudder horn eyebolts so the cotter pins would fit correctly. Also improvised a stand for my tailwheel that will put my tailwheel at the proper height to put the plane in level flight attitude for the next attempt at weighing it. One interesting outcome of that exercise was to note that my main wheels land exactly where the plans call for them to be, which is one-half inch behind the datum, where the datum is the leading edge of the wing. I would not have been surprised if they were different, because I bought the landing gear legs second-hand from a guy on the internet, and they could have been anything. I was pleased that the gear are aligned as per the design.
