More baffle jog
I worked more on bending and fitting the custom-made piece for the baffle jog. It fits pretty well. It ended up being kind of close to the oil cooler hole, but I want to make sure it’s at least an inch tall to provide enough material to attach the baffle seal.
I wasn’t quite ready to drill it, so I picked up something else. I was looking at the FAB and noticing how rough it was inside. I spent a few minutes sanding the inside smooth. That’s not exactly easy on such an ackward part.
Also today, I received the Princeton capactive fuel sender converters and Hooker harnesses. The harnesses look great. They’re a little heavier than I expected, but they look extremely well built. The colors were black for the belts and dark gray pads with black edging.
The Princeton units look straight-forward. Comparing them to the units Dan C described, they now leave off the cover from the BNC connector to make it easier to get them through the side of the fuselage. That’s an improvement. However, in retrospect I wish I would have just installed the float fuel senders in the tanks.
