Brief Description:  Final right wing understructure preparations.

I finally finished the countersinking of the main and aft spars of the right hand wing. I clecoed on the top skins to check the scarf joint and decided it wasn't smooth enough, so I removed the skins and reduced the thickness of the skin at the joint corner. Then I removed the wing structure from the jig, placed it on my worktable and touched up some rivets that joined the main spar to the ribs with my rivet gun. I followed that by priming the exposed metal caused by the countersinking.
