I built a support angle for the fuel pump. \u00a0The rivets holding the brackets to the floor are pretty secure but if it gets kicked hard to the side it *could* snap off, and then we might have fuel in the cockpit.<\/p>\n

Drilled and installed the static port rivet on both sides.<\/p>\n

I bought these springs and collars during the last build. \u00a0They give a firmer brake pedal feel and push back when off the brakes so that the brakes don’t drag. \u00a0There is a washer at the top of the springs opposite end of the collar to keep the springs from rubbing. \u00a0I’ll secure\u00a0the collar 1\/16″ from the bolt, washer and nut.<\/p>\n

Secured the tubing which keeps the rudder cable from rubbing on the aileron push tubes.<\/p>\n

Riveted the angles after this.<\/p>\n
