Brief Description: Outboard Leading Edge Initial Assembly
Put the leading edge skins into the cradle and started assembling with the ribs and splice strips. This was not easy to do even though the ribs were quite straight. Important trick learned: Leave the skin sitting up in the cradle so that it is opened up a bit, then cleco the bottom of the ribs to the skin. Then drop the skin down into the cradle and cleco the top, starting at the aft edge and working forward. Try to keep the rib lined up as best as possible. Some of the forward most holes didn't line up well due to the fluting, but they were pretty close. I just drilled those using the skin hole as the guide, it resulted in a slightly elongated hole in the rib.
