9 ribs ready
Had to primer two last parts, then got the flap and aileron brackets match drilled, deburred and riveted to their appropriate locations on 9 ribs. Last 2 root ribs are solid and I’m having a challenge straightening them out. I will probably just take the last 2 ribs down to my EAA meeting next week and get an expert opinion on uncooperative aluminum. I can keep working on prep for the other wing in the meantime.
