Hello, everyone. I am building a slosh bay
for my fuel tanks since I am leaving my header tank out. From the drawings
in the manual, I get that it goes at BL 57. Does anyone have a pattern
that they used to make the rib? What did you make it from? Foam core
or prepreg? I got the how-to documents from Lancair. I am going to
put two doors per rib. They sell slosh doors and slosh door stand offs.
Should I buy those or make my own? What did you guys do. Did you
change your fuel pick up from the manual's way? I am thinking I am going
to use the finger strainers, like the one that would have gone in the header
tank, that the sell. They are the required 3/8". My question
is: should they be bent back like in the manual to be parallel to the
ribs, or is it ok for them to be perpendicular? That do you guys
think? Thanks in advance.
Will
