Brief Description:  Strake fairing blocks

Trimmed starboard fairing block skin and removed false rib. All reasonable, but found a couple of fixable bubbles on the top seam. Drilled for fill and marked for future attention.

Removed blue wing foam and cleaned up some blobs of this and that. Prepped foam and layed up 3 x BID into an end rib. The first two overlapped onto the spar tip, the last just onto the forward face, which is probably a better idea.

Smoothed and profiled the port hardshelling, prepped the remainder and applied 2 x UND as I did starboard side. Except for the things I did different. I cut the UND inside the window frame, to help it to lay down into the flange, and I only peel plied the edge. I did not mark up the ply directions onto the foam, as I found it of no benefit last time.
