1 hr. final testing of the right tank.

Balloon well inflated and soaping up everything one last time and staring at it really closely.

Methodically going around: Outside rivets, ends and then the back plate on top.  Bubbles... but no growing or multiplying bubbles.

Soaping up everywhere it could possibly leak.  All Good!

Balloon still inflated 3 hours later.  I'm satisfied.

NEXT SESSIONS:
  1. Finish internal sealing of left tank with Class A sealant.
  2. Right wing down and start on the left wing!!  The tops of the wings will remain open until I get it inspected.
