Brief Description:  Fitting fuel filler collars

The pre-drilled holes in the wings (for the fillers) were reasonable close to the book dimensions - so I went with the pre-drilled holes. The location is OK but I should have used the book figures. Using the pre-drilled holes located the collars within 1/4" of the side of one of the tanks. Sanded the skins, smoothed the holes, vacuumed the tanks then set the collars in with flock.
More work on the wong tips - removed the temp locating screws and sanded the joint areas. Then pre-wet the areas and laid up 2 strips of glass all around the joint.
