Andre stopped by today and helped me finish riveting the bottom of the right wing. \u00a0We had a little scare when the holes wouldn’t align correctly. \u00a0Basically, if the rear spar holes were clecoed in place, the forward spar holes were off by about 1\/32″ or so. \u00a0The holes in the substructure were farther apart than the holes in the skin. \u00a0I finally determined that the flanges at the ends of the ribs can flex a little bit and pulling down on the rear spar compressed these flanges enough to allow me to pull the holes into alignment. \u00a0The outer skin is definitely easier than the inner skin. \u00a0There is a lot more room between the ribs, and we changed our strategy to rivet the rear spar first while I could reach straight up from below in each bay. \u00a0It still took us probably 4-5 hours to finish off this wing.<\/p>\n
