Tank Vents???

[Paul Thomas]

I'm helping a friend finish his RV-10. I'm a -7 builder and one thing that confused me is the fuel vents. There is an AN fitting coming out of the last baffle, just like the -7 but I couldn't find how to continue that run in the plans.

I understand the system is different than "legacy" aircrafts, but I have a hard time believing we're just leaving it open in the wing root.

How did you route your and where should I look in the plans?

Thanks,

Paul

Section 44, Wing Attach. The plans have you fab a short vent tube (approx 8 inches) that is attached to the AN connection on the rib, has a 90 deg bend straight down and exits through the lower wing root fairing.

Thank you Todd; how can one ask for a better answer? You tell me what I need to do and the reference (which is great since I don't have the plans). Simple and what I had in mind when I looked at things

I'll get those done in no time.
