fuel pump to flow sender: 2015-10-30 Panasonic DMC-FT1
The pipe connecting the fuel pump to the fuel flow sender. This layout was chosen because the sender requires a 6" length of straight pipe at inlet and outlet to minimise errors from turbulence. The flow sender is mounted on a small aluminium-angle bracket. The bracket is not yet fixed to the port inboard rib because it will be fitted to the area where the reinforcing layup goes, so the holes will be drilled after the baggage-bay bulkhead is fitted and the reinforcements laid up. The bolts and nuts holding the sender to the bracket are temporary. From this angle, the spacers under the fuel pump mounting lugs are visible. The pump had to be spaced off from the rib to avoid the need for a compound bend in the pipe from the gascolator. Apologies for the rather cluttered background.

Visible on the inner face of the starboard inboard rib is the thin SRBF sheet bonded on to act as a rubbing surface for the rudder cable.
