Manual Reference:  7-8
Brief Description:  Leading edge assembly

Jackie came and helped me cleco the leading edge ribs into the skin. We noted once it was altogether that while in the jig the trailing edges are not aligned. The jig obviously isn't as square/straight as we though and it induces a twist in the leading edge. Its fine out of teh jog; so that's where we'll rivet it. Not sure how, tackle that another time. Also riveted the K1100-8 nutplates to the W-423 joint plate before assembling that with the [whichever] rib. If I don't go skydiving tomorrow then maybe we'll rivet it together, or prep the holes in the spar. Whatever...
