Brief Description:  Began to fit the left fuel tank.

Today I began fitting the left fuel tank to the wing assembly. I started by bending the steel straps (1" x 4' X .025") over the top of the fuel tank. Then I placed it into the wing assembly and shimmed it to be the correct height. I then pushed it up against the top skin stiffeners, pulled the front of the strap tight and marked it at the spar. I then cut it at the line and marked the hole in the main spar. I removed the tank and straps and drilled the hole(s) in the straps. I then bolted the straps to the main spar and put the whole setup back into the assembly; pulled the straps tight and marked, cut and drilled the aft straps to the false spar.
