Brief Description:  01 - Port tip tank

Port tip tank

Today James and I tested a variety of hole and dimple sizes in a piece of scrap, then match drilled the port tip tank attach holes up to size, deburred and dimpled the wing skin, countersunk the tank attach flanges and affixed most of the K2000-06 long-arm nutplates. I set the nutplates at an angle to spread the load over the carbon fibre flanges and maximise hole spacing. I thought the tank may be difficult to get back into the wing tip with dimples in the skins, but no, it fits and aligns very easily. All good!
