Right Wing

I've riveted the ribs to the spar for the right wing now. This went considerable faster since I had already done it for the left one.


I've now got both wings moved to their stands. The purpose of the stands is that it gives you a solid fixture to mount the wings and allows you get them perfectly level, so that your wings once completed will be perfectly straight and have no twist.


With the length of the wings and the weight of the ribs and the spar itself, the wing will actually sag. To get an idea, how much, you run some fishing line from end to end along a row of holes.


In the middle, where it is the most pronounced you can see just how far off it it, (it should be running through the middle of the bottom row of holes)
