Brief Description:  Trial Assembly of Right Main Spar

I've been lucky to have a few days off and have been making good progress on my main spars. I decided to concentrate on the right one, and get it built first. The good news is that I have a major part of the drilling operation for the left one already complete too. After step-drilling the caps, doublers, and cap angles to their final sizes, I started adding the nose rib angles to the front of the spar. I'm going to pre-drill the holes for the nose ribs in these angles as well. Tomorrow I'll add the hat stiffeners, and the preliminary construction will be done on this one - that's when the real work begins. I'll disassemble the whole thing and carefully dress every edge and remove every nick and scratch before applying corrosion protection. I expect this process to take a while.
