Manual Reference: Sect. 7
Brief Description: Right Wing Bottom Skins

After many months of upgrading the RV-6, it's time again to start on the RV-8 once again. Completed dimpling on the right-wing top panels and now starting on the bottom. Cleco'd both in plance, both inboard and outboard. Prior to installing the wing panels I had to repair an elongated counter-sink inthe rear spar flange. Image 3 shows the details. Next step is to match drill, deburr and then dimple.
