Vent Line
I've stared getting a trial fit for the vent line. I tried out my tube bender, it works great!
The vent tube is to allow for air to enter the fuel tank as fuel is being used while flying.

So far, the trial fit seems pretty good.

Here is one of the few times I wasn't able use my pneumatic squeezer, since the hand squeezer can get in a lot closer. Here I'm riveting one of the anti-hangup brackets. This is to prevent the flop tube from getting stuck between the bottom stiffener and the rib.
