Extreme wot 4 Fuel leak
After a great day on sunday noticed some solarfilm dis-colouration on the fus. Inspected inside the fus and there was fuel inside the fus going back all the way to the wing bolt area. Luckily I fuel proofed all the way back to this point, but the petrol had gone in between the solarfilm and fus so had to be removed. I did think about fitting a trusty Du-bro but used the one that was supplied (bad move). Fuel tank stripped for parts and the rest in the bin not even checked it. Anyway its drying out in the sun during the day hopefully start re-covering tonight.

Flew great Peter even with fuel leak shame about the extra work but u will soon have her flying again :)
Bad luck Pete but at least you found it quick before the leak could do even more damage.
What a pain, Great flyer!
Hi
Having problems with the covering was using white to replace colurs but the stains were bleeding through so I will be off to Rapid saturday to pick up some purple covering. All being well back in flying condition in a 1 weeks time.
Happy flying
