Brief Description:  Hoses - Fittings sensors

Fabrication continued on the fuel selector housing and revised connection bracket to the seat pans, spar bolts, and floor stiffeners.

Deterimined a location on the engine mount (left nose gear brace) to attach the Red Cube that would meet the best criteria. Not hard mounted to engine, nor FW per se, and after the mechical (engine mounted) fuel pump. This places it between the pump and AFP FI servo inlet, on 3/8th" fuel lines. Fabricated an AL angle bracket.

Tested various angles, lengths, and fuel line bends using scrap 3/8th" soft AL tubing. Fabricated a tubing 'template' to have a custom fuel line made with hose, SS tubing, and fire sleeve. Used a VA-138 hose to determine routing and length from fuel pump to the Red Cube.
