Nutplates and other small things
Catégorie: Wings : Final assembly

I first got the wings out in the garden and then installed all the nutplates for the wing fairing. There is some drilling, deburring, countersinking and dimplig to perform. Small tasks but very time consuming.
I also installed two strings to be able to pull the wirings once the wings are on for good.



I then took of the bottom skins and performed the service bulletin on the autopilot servo arm by install the small bracket that will retain the screw should it try to unwind itself.



I then removed the left fuel tank, the one with the all position fuel pickup. It seems that the fuel quantity sender's seal might leak when in contact with aviation fuel. I will put some proseal on them to avoid contact with the fuel, but to do this on the left tank it has to be removed. The right side can be done with the tank on the wing.
I also tied to find a sequence to rivet the bottom skins as access seems somewhat difficult.
