My dad, who built a T-18 in his younger days (along with my mom) has been funneling money towards my project. He sharpens skates for the local kids and has been donating the proceeds to the Bearhawk. I finally had enough saved to purchase the fuel tanks a couple of weeks ago.
So today I received my fuel tanks from Avipro. There was a nasty hole in the box and sure enough, there was a dent in the outboard end of the left tank. I called Mark Goldberg and asked him if it was OK to pound it out and he said it was. So I took a rubber mallet and pounded the top of the fuel tank back to it's original curve. No problems.
