Brief Description:  Right Wing - wiring conduit & flap/aileron braces

With the wing now on the workbench I took the plunge and took the wing jig down: man, I really hope I don't need that again!! Having worked around those two posts for so long, the workshop seems kinda big and empty without them. Still, once we've saved a few more dollars and ordered the fuselage kit I'll be able to fill the gap with another jig instead!! Anyway, after taking the wing jig down I then ran the Angle-of-Attack tubing and the wiring conduit (with three draw strings) through the ribs in the wing. I also fitted the aileron and flap braces, and the aileron and flap hinge brackets. None of these have been match drilled yet and since it was 9pm I decided to quit and leave that job until tomorrow. Once that is done though, we have the tedious task of deburring and edge finishing all those parts, and the left aileron parts I was working on the other day. Then we prime 'em and start the assembly process.
