Catching up on the right wing

November 18, 2010 – Today I took care of several items that would get the right wing caught up to the left.

I started by riveting the ribs to the main spar in the upper (forward) holes that will be under the fuel tank skin when it is installed. I couldn’t find these referenced anywhere in the plans, and I have seen them mentioned on other sites, so I went ahead and installed them.

The large countersinks are for the fuel tank screws, and the line of holes below them are  the skin rivet holes.

I also had to dimple the holes in the aft spar.

I continued to dimple the main skins for the right wing. I got the wingwalk doubler and the outboard lower skin done. All I lack is the outboard upper skin. When that is dimpled, I can cleco it in place, and then I should be able to start on the leading edges.
