Brief Description:  Tank Assy - Flop Tube Snag Brackets 3

I messed around and determined there is a potential for the fuel flop tube to get stuck in front of the stiffener flange as shown in photo 1. So I made a couple brackets and installed them to prevent this. I used 1/8 holes and pulled rivets. I was careful to suck up the chips when I drilled the holes so they didn't get stuck in the Proseal. Now my tanks are per drawing with the two flop tube anti-snag brackets.
