Brief Description:  Right Wing #8 - Leading Edge Assy

This post is actually representative of multiple work sessions over the last week and a half. These sessions lasted anywhere from 10 to 90 minutes in between late nights at work, drill weekend, cub scout meetings and hikes, church outings, mowing lawns, taking the boys flying, shopping for the wife's new laminate flooring, evening baths and constant corralling of 3 kids, etc., etc., etc.....

In that time I managed to do the following: debur and dimple the leading edge assembly ribs, edge and hole debur the leading edge skin, dimple the leading edge skin, prime the skin interior rivet lines with a spray bomb, and prime the ribs with the good stuff (AFS). I also finished the leading edge joint plate that goes between the leading edge and tank, this included edge and hole deburring, dimpling for #8 screws and AN3 rivets, priming, and installing nutplates.

I'm basically ready to assemble and rivet the leading edge together.
