Tonight I decided to get
the leading edge together. I worked on this for about 2 hrs
and only got 2 pictures. How boring. More interesting
tonight was that Dan Checkoway finally updated his web site to include
his experiences on their recent cross-country flying vacation.
So between drilling holes and eating dinner, I had to catch up on
the latest flying news. I thought maybe there for a while,
he was done updating his web site.
Okay, back to building
my own plane. The 2nd leading edge clecoed together with no
problems. I didn't get any of the bulges on the skin I had
with the right leading edge as I "adjusted" the ribs before
putting the leading edge together for the first time. When
I mounted the leading edge to the spar, it fit perfectly.
No further notching required of the wing stand attach angles.
I clecoed this sucker
together and match drilled all the holes. I used the red sharpie
marking method I started using on the left wing skins so that I
didn't miss any holes while moving clecoes around.

Just a picture of the
top side. Tonights log entry is almost not even worth the
web server space.

No pictures, but I also
got the leading edge to fuel tank attach plate measured out and
ready to drill to the leading edge inboard rib.
I must be have learned
something on the first wing. I didn't get this far for two
hours worth of work on the right wing leading edge.
