Brief Description:  Leading edge skin

Added and drilled the leading edge skin. We didn't get as tight a fit around the nose rib as I would have liked. The plans call for the use of Duct tape to keep the skin in position for drilling, but we found the tape would "slide". The adhesive isn't strong enough in shear. A better method would have been to wrap a strap around the leading and rear skins. However, care would need to be taken to prevent bending the trailing edge (which might be why the duct tape procedure was recommended).

In any event, the end result is pretty good. If this is as bad as things get, I'll end up with a very good airplane!
