My buddy Andre stopped by today and helped me get started on the wing kit. \u00a0The first thing you do is install a lot<\/b>\u00a0of platenuts. \u00a0These will be the platenuts that receive the fuel tank screws and inspection cover screws. \u00a0Here is Andre drilling one of the center holes for the platenuts.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
\nHere you can see the countersinks for a couple of the platenuts. \u00a0The center hole is countersunk for a #8 screw and the outer holes are countersunk for AD3 rivets.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
\nHere is one completed row of countersinks. \u00a0Instead of Van’s recommended method of countersinking. \u00a0I used a long piece of 1\/16″ aluminum angle clecoed below the spar flange. \u00a0Way easier and more precise.<\/p>\n

\nHere are both spars prepped for priming the exposed countersinks.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
\nThe battery in my digital scale died, so I broke out the NAPA 7220 self-etching primer.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
\nAfter the primer dried, we installed all of the platenuts. \u00a0This went surprisingly fast with two of us and we had them all installed in about an hour. \u00a0Here you can see that the lower platenuts are countersunk for #8 screws and the upper platenuts are not countersunk for the #6 screws in the access plates.<\/p>\n
