Continued working on the pitot tube mount. Two 3/4" wide legs were fashioned out of 0.032" 6061 aluminum. Part of the rib cap strip was removed to allow the pitot tube to fit close to the rib for better support. All parts were deburred. Using a long straight level, the parts were clamped in place to verify fit. Next step will be to drill holes for rivets, dimple the locations that need it, and then finally epoxy and rivet the parts in place. Hours: 1
