Brief Description:  Installed Fuel vent tubing pilot side

Installed fuel vent line using 1/4" AL tubing. Started at the forward end and worked back to the 90 elbo fitting. In retrospect it is easier to do the rudder cable clearance jog first. Overall the tubing was easy to install but it took me twice the time to do the pilot side v.s. the passenger side. Used the tubing bender to make the jog as well as the 90 degree turns in the tube. Also this was the first time I used my new pipe flair tool. Cut the ends square using a standard copper pipe cutter and then deburred the outside edge with the scotchbrite wheel. I had to drill out the rivet on the fuselage buklhead in order to install the angle fitting. Apparently the quick builders missed the note to not install a rivet in that location, which should be drilled out for the angle fitting.
