Brief Description:  Rt Wing #20 - Aileron brackets/Flap & Aileron Brac

Added the RTV to the grooves of the conduit at each rib. Removed the wing from the stands and layed it on the bench (Furge came over after work to help me do this). Unbolted the wing stands from the floor and cut/ground down the 4 bolts at the end near the bench. I'll do the the other 4 later.

Pulled the blue plastic off of the aileron and flap braces. Trimmed the flap brace so it fits along the rear spar doublers. Cleko'd the braces to the rear spar and skin and drilled all the holes to size. Did the same with aileron brackets. Had to do some trimming in places to make sure there was no interference between the various parts and rivet heads. Took the brackets and braces back apart and they are now ready for deburing and dimpling as required. Then it's time for what is probably the last priming session on the wings...

Remembering the lesson learned on the lt wing - rivet to spar first, then drill side holes.
