Brief Description:  Butt plates and compression rib glueing

Fitted front and rear spar butt plates to both wings and installed 1st bay drag wire lugs. Fitted -5 butt ribs so they could slide over the plates. Reamed I-strut holes to 1/4" again then stuck alignment pins in them. Used string betwen them to square each wing. Glued all compression ribs except the -5's. Put one 5/8" staple through each upper and lower capstrip per assembly instructions. Re-checked the wings and adjusted for squareness. Applied more T-88 to the rib/spar contact areas to help fill any gaps.
