Mike, John everyone,

 Thanks for the good ideas.

 After I wrote my request and let my blood pressure  return below 120 psi, Linda and I backed it up against an open hanger door  and put a rag between the door and the tip rib, I than sunk a digging bar into  the ground behind the second rib and wrapped a rag around the bar where it  touched the second rib.

 Linda held the bar and the tail against the  door while I set down with my foot against the bar and pulled the trailing  edge straight with a pair of Channel Lock pliers with a folded rag protecting  the fabric.  Had the jaws set so the tube could not slip through them and  it worked pretty dang good.

 Was totally her idea as I was worried about tearing  up the fabric.  Got a few new scuffs but not resl bad at all.

  

 Whew. back to work on the fuel system.
