at the top of the wing tank


I installed a couple of vents in the tops of my tanks so I could vent 
the tanks with the wings folded. I ground the tank finish down to 
fiberglass, then glued a 1 1/4" disk of 1/4" thick G-10 fiberglass plate 
to it with epoxy. (I tried a smaller plate first, and when I went to cut 
pipe threads I popped it off. You can flatten the shape to get it closer 
to the top by making  it an ellipse or long rectangle.) I then drilled 
and tapped for pipe and put in a permanent "bushing" (A brass pipe 
reducer) so my final 1/8" NPT fitting would go into brass instead of 
fiberglass.
