Just out of curiosity, is the tank and straps going to be covered with the same wing covering somehow, or will it be covered with a different material? I’m assuming the metal straps will be covered with pinking material like the ribs etc., correct?
No, the fuel tank and straps do not get covering. The top of the tank is part of the airfoil. The edges all around the tank do get covered to fill the gap between the wing and tank.
