Installed wingtip aft ribs

November 19, 2012 – I cleaned, scuffed and painted the aft ribs. You may recall that I modified the stock ribs so they would fit enclosing the end of the tips.

I slightly over-countersunk the wingtip holes so the pop-rivets would fit a little low when pulled. This way I can use filler and make these fasteners disappear.

I used sealant to secure the ribs in place and to fill gaps for a clean edge, then installed the rivets.
