The clunk lines are pushed back in with the length adjusted. One clunk line couples to one vent and they are plumbed in series.

this is everything pushed through the drilled holes. the vent lines are expanded with a segment of plastic tubing.Once pulled back through its very difficult to pull the vent lines out of the tanks.

There will be no brass tubes in the tanks. All the lines will be friction fit through the walls of the tanks. The bung is just an access port.

The rear canopy window will be aluminum tape. I just stuck one on there temporarily. It needs to be painted again above the blue tape.

The GFS maple syrup is crazy thick, very heavy duty. I had the vent and pick up lines friction fitted through the wall of the bottle, no fittings. The neoprene with Viton hoses in the tank were like brand new after many years, so I reused them in the new tank. I cut the bottle open to get a good look inside. no garbage or growth, just discolored.

My Boomerang Xl tank needed an update. It finally started leaking under the cap after 13 years.

I forgot to frame out a hatch for the back seater. I outlined it with some charting tape and will burn some rivets around it. It will then get another mist of paint.

Here is the fuel tank hold down tray that will take the ECU, fuel pump, turbine battery, receiver, and receiver battery. The aluminum angles will get screwed into the sides. The bolts coming up will stay a little ling in case something needs to be bolted on them. The tray will get an air dam on the front to keep everything on the tray out of the air stream.

Hopefully I can balance the plane by shifting things in the plane to spare adding lead. But we will see.

I propped up the fuse on the front spar. It is 6" in front of the CG. The fuse. tipped very nose heavy. I think that is good at this point since there are quite a few things that will be behind the CG.

I made a paper template of the back of the fuse. I will start stacking some blocks of urethane foam to create the fairings on the back of the fuse.
