Brief Description:  Brakes, wingtips

Terry, Brian, and Eric were on site from 6:00 - 8:30. Found enough brake parts to mount the right brake assembly and also were able to determine the parts needed to finish the brakes.

Test fit the aluminum strips wing tip ribs and determined spacing for the attachment hardware. We are going to use #10 nut plates on 3" centers. #8's would have been sufficient, but we have a greater supply of #10 nut plates on hand and to keep costs down we are going to use the larger nut plates.

Continue to think about how we will mount the flaperon hangers on the back edge of the ribs. They don't currently fit the way the plans say that they should.
