Manual Reference:  Sec 14 - Wing Ribs
Brief Description:  Riveted left wing ribs to spar

Got lots done today. Started by riveting the 3 flap hinge brackets and their half ribs to the designated wing ribs. I then riveted together the torque tube assembly and then the assembly to the 1010 end rib and then placed snap bushings in the holes for the pitot tubing. Finally I riveted all the ribs to the spar, except for the outboard end rib which gets riveted on later. These ribs fought me all the way. Somedays it just seems you'd be better off calling it a day early and coming back when the planets are better aligned, or something. I had to drill out a number of rivets today which is unusual, and had lots of smileys which I left in-place. More than once I wanted to throw my rivet gun through my shop window, but I stuck with it and got all the rivets set.
