Brief Description:  Left rear spar preparation

Preparing the stiffener plates and aileron hinge points, and offering them up to the rear spar on the left wing. This takes a bit of thought, since the part designation isn’t always what you might expect. (For example, almost every part for the Left wing has a “-L” suffix, except for one or two of the hinge components which have a “-R”; it makes some sense when you look closer, since it relates to the orientation on the wing but is a definite Gotcha if you’re not paying attention!)

Also, some – but not all - holes need to be countersunk to take flush head rivets where other components lie on top or alongside. It’s not that different to parts of the build I’ve done already, but those of you paying attention will see that yet again I’m coming back to the project after a long layoff, so some of the thinking is half-new to me again).
