Brief Description:  Aux tanks

Pressure in tank this morning was exactly the same as it was pressurezed to yesterday. Leak fixed!

Sanded aft footwell tank top flush with sides and ground off last of alignment tabs. Final finish sanding on top and all sides. This tank is FINISHED.


Started work on alignment and locking rails for forward footwell tanks.

Sanded lower tank upper sides. Taped 3/8" foam piece to fwd end of top tank. Applied release tape to upper tank sides and fwd end. Layed up 3 bid carbon to inboard side of lower tank extending 1" onto released upper tank.

Layed up 6 bid carbon onto tank fwd ends, 3 inches onto lower tank extending 3" onto released upper tank.

A horizontal slot will be cut in the carbon where the released foam is. On the upper tank the foam will be removed and a layup with a horizontal tongue extending forward will be layed up. The "tongue" will slip into the slot to prevent any upward movement of the fwd end of the upper tank. Another locking device will be used at the aft end.
