WINGS: Wing work performed by previous Builder

Updated: Aug 20, 2019

The left wing has been finish-drilled and is currently cleco'd together in a temporary jig in the garage workshop. The work on the wing up to this point had been done by the former builder.

Section VI: Wing Assembly has been completed up to page 93 for the left wing, with one or two items that I need to back-track to check but all is clearly marked in the assembly manual. Other than an inventory and pre-assembly of the strut mount bracket, the aileron hinges and a few other brackets that were made during the left wing effort, nothing has been done.

I plan to disassemble, de-bur, clean and prime the left wing interior components and the insides of the skins and then pack and store them with the right wing components. My intention is to work on the ailerons and flap

s (each left/right pair concurrently) and then return to the wings and build them concurrently. With the left wing this far along, I will be able to reference it during the right wing build to hopefully keep from too many speed bumps!
