Brief Description:  Sealed Right Tank Access Plate

Big day, today. I finsihed sealing the right tank by installing the access plate (with cork gasket), forming the fillets around the baffle and encapsulating the rivet heads. I'm probably going overboard on the proseal, but I hope that means it won't leak (Proseal is cheap-G. Orndorff). I primed and assembled the stall warning mechanism. I crimped and soldered the connectors on the mechanism's wiring. I removed the top skins from the right wing and countersunk that area of the main spar and primed the holes. I used my squeezer to rivet the top rib holes to the spar in the tank area. I used tank dimple dies in the squeezer to dimple the top of the right ribs. Afterwards, I pulled out the two most outboard ribs in the right leading edge and attached the nutplates for the landing light assembly. I used pulled rivets for this.
