My RV-8 build


Date: 11-12-2012
Number of Hours: 2.00
Manual Reference: Page 7-9
Brief Description: Left wings bottoms skins

Both the inboard and outboard left wing skins were deburred, scotchbrighted, and cleaned. After cleaning, both bottom skins were dimpled, and then cleaned again. After cleaning, I sprayed both with primer. In picture #3, you can see the overspray still in the air. I won't get to start riveting until Wednesday this week as I have to finish a kitchen installation tomorrow. I also picked up a Garmin SL-40. At this point, my panel is somewhat complete.
