Brief Description:  Wings - finished!

It seems like I could never get those last outboard skins done on the wings. It wasn't because it was hard, but I did need a riveting partner and I just didn't make it a big priority. Well since the fuselage is growing I am running out of room and the wings take up less space in a wing cradle than they do in the stands.
Greg Schroeder, of Sportsman 2+2 fame came over and did a masterful job on the gun while I sacrificed my skin on my arms to buck the last few bays of the outboard bottom left wing skin. It came out great and he stuck around and help me deposit those newly minted wings into the cradle and rearrange the shop alittle - thanks Greg!
It is nice to have the wings 99% done. I only need to put the tips and secure the flap hinge pin retainer.
