Brief Description: Attaching the leading & trailing edge ribs.
The Aeronautical Engineer that I have engaged is not available until sometime around the 14th Feb. so I'll just tinker & fiddle without much progress until then.
This last week has seen the East Coast of Australia being hammered by cyclonic winds and floods, and as a result I now have about 10 large trees on my property lying on the ground. Looks like the chainsaw will get a workout over the next week or so.
Started fitting the leading and trailing edge ribs.
Found that no nose rib had been supplied for the area in front of the fuel tank. so I moved the one from the wing rib 10 position to midway between ribs 11 & 12.
Finding the wing ribs to be very floppy along the top edge due to the cutouts at 2 of the stringer holes. I feel it would have been much better to use the shrinking pliers than making the cuts at these positions.
Lots of clamps is good
Checking for square and using the ss rule as a straight edge
