Fuselage January 2006 Updates January 01, 2006 Fuel Pump Doubler - 3hrs I countersunk the doubler and primed it. Match drilled the holes in the firewall. STAINLESS Sux! When I went to drill the 1/4 inch holes I burned up 2 bits. In retrospect I should have drilled a small pilot hole and then worked my way up. Riveted it in place with the nutplates. Its ready for the fuel pump. This website was built to document my work in compliance with the FAA requirements needed to certify my aircraft.
