You need a short section of hose there because of wing flex in that area. I
used a 45 screwed into the wing and cut a long oval in the BL50 rib to get
at the hose end. I had to make a special 11/16 wrench to get at the
fitting. The hose runs from the 45 and makes an easy bend to the rear spar
where it connects to the hard line. I think skipv@olympus.net has pictures
of my installation. If I were to do it over I would use slip on hose on the
45 and bead the hard line and use clamps. That works for Cessna and is what
skip is doing.

I'm looking for a recommendation for a fitting. Note that a standard 90
degree elbow is not long enough to clear the BL50 rib. An AN916 elbow wi=
th
AN911 pipe thread is too long, it will hit the Landing Gear Leg. I need
something inbetween.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
