I'm glad you asked, because I've wondered the same! The manual makes NO mention of the fuel tanks again. When I read to put in only half the screws, I sort of expect that later on the manual will say to put in the other half! I wonder if there are any RVs flying out there with only half the fuel tank screws installed (esp. the hidden z-bracket ones)? ;-)
I can only guess that sometimes the tanks need to be removed again, perhaps when fitting the wings to the fuselage? However I've talked to some quick build builders who told me they never had to remove the tanks.
I still have only half the screws installed, but I keep thinking I'll go ahead and install the remaining ones, since it doesn't take long anyway, and if I ever do need to remove the tanks again, it'll probably be years from now.
