Request for fuel pressure input to the fuel pressure regulator. Installed a fuel pressure sensor on the input to the regulator. So now we have differential pressure out of the regulator and pressure into the regulator.

Another issue with the pre-built cockpit module. The fuel tank was not supported on the aluminum angle. Bud suggested this could cause tank cracking and recommended some sort of support be added. I cut a wedge from a length of balsa and covered it with
