A horrible afternoon, I went to drill the last two holes in the HS0005 and the spar, and messed the very last one up. I centred the hole on the spar angle side, and failed to measure on the rear side as a double check, drilled the hole and ended up with terrible edge distance on the rib. It just looks awful and has messed up the Rib, reinforcement plate and the spar.
Even if I am told to build on, I don’t think I’d ever be happy knowing that the defect is there, even if it is covered up with fairings etc. So that is another two weeks delay on the project over my break, a huge waste of time and money, very angry with myself.
