Hello all,
Just want to say Thanks for the responses to my question regarding fuel
tank 
repair. I did contact John Wright JR., very nice guy. I have since removed

the LH wing tank and am shipping to John. It was great to see nice clean 
metal in the fuselage and spar areas uncovered by the tank removal. Prior
to 
packaging the tank, I flushed it with hot water for several hours. I was 
surprised to see how much sealing/sloshing material ended up on the shop 
floor after this flushing. Even though this tank was pulled due to a
specific 
leak on a welded seam, I am already feeling beter knowing this tank will
come 
back with a sanitary inside, now I am agonizing over pulling the other
wing 
tank. I think that after I get the LH tank back and I see that John does
as 
nice a job as many have said, I will be repeating the process.
