Brief Description:  Tank Prep - Fuel Vent and Return Lines 2

I decided to add fuel return lines after reading a bunch about these on Vans Airforce. Since I want to do aerobatics I'll probably use a fuel injected engine and return lines will probably be needed. Photo 1 shows there are few places left where the full reinforcement washer will fit without overlaping the indentation in the rib. I decided on the position where the blue washer is shown, for all the ribs where the return line will go. The other positions interfere with the capacitance fuel level system. I made the return lines. The return line will dump into the third bay counting from inboard and I'll bend it down to dump in the lower half of the bay.
