Brief Description:  Installing the pitot probe to the left wing

After I carefully curved the pitot probe's aluminum tube 90 degrees inboard, I anchored the pitot tube/mast assembly to the left wing with its #8 flush crews. The probe's alignment looks good, and it feels solidly mounted.

Chris then applied the snap bushings to the aluminum tubes, ran the AN fittings through the rib holes, then snapped the bushings into place. They hold firmly. I followed up with slight tweaks to the aluminum tubes' bend to make sure the fittings fit straight.
