Brief Description:  Tanks

Gooped the shop heads of on inside ribs of the right and left tanks. Un-clecoed the inboard rib on the left tank and gave the faying surfaces a wipe with MEK, then buttered the flanges with goop (that is, pro-seal), Also buttered the place for the nose reinforcement and clecoed it in place.

Put the rib back in place, inserted clecoes in all holes. Taped across the top and removed the top clecoes, poked the holes with a toothpick dunked in the goop, inserted the rivets, and squoze them home. On the top skin, removed every other cleco, gooped, insert rivets, and squoze them. Repeated until all the rivets were in.

Then buttered the attach bracket that goes on the inboard rib and put it into place. Rinsed some AN470AD-4-8 rivets in MEK, dried, dunked them in pro-seal, and buck riveted them. Used the remaining pro-seal goop to daub the shop heads of the inboard rivets and fill the fluting in on the inboard rib.

Still need to daub the shop heads of the left tank stiffeners.
