Brief Description:  Right wing leading dege and hinge (17-03)

Flipped the right wing over with the help of my son Stephen. He's my go to guy if I need to flip the wing. He's strong enough and has enough control that I feel comfortable that it isn't going to get damaged. Anyway, I completed the riveting the leading edges of the right wing. I also started installing the two hinge brackets. I had already prepared the hinges a while ago, so I just needed to install them. On the left wing I figured out it was easier to install if I just drilled out the 3 rivets on the rear spar to get access to rivet everything on the bracket. I also had to think about the order for pulling the rivets, such that I didn't cut off access. I was able to get all the rivets facing the same direction. I was pleased with the results and it feels very solid.
