Wing trailing edge stiffeners

This morning I riveted the trailing edge stiffener into place.


Pocket covers

Next I drilled, deburred, and countersunk the holes for the pocket cove covers, then riveted them as well.

Wing tips

This evening I finished adding the remaining nutplates to the wing tip mount. I then cut the wing tip to length and epoxied some rolled up fibreglass mat inside the wingtip to seal it. I did both wing tips - I had previously done the right tip but had forgotten to remove the mold release, so it didn't adhere. This time I used turps to degrease it properly.
