Brief Description:  RH Fuel Tank Match-drilling

Removed the rear baffle and end fuel tank ribs from the right wing and installed them back into the tank in the cradle. I reinstalled the RH wing leading edge just to get it out of the way. I then match drilled the ribs to the skin and then the skin to the rear baffle. I also match drilled the rear baffle to the ribs. I drilled the screw holes that the fuel tank attach to the spar out to #19 per the plans. I almost have the right tank caught up with the left. Tomorrow I will counter-sink all the skin to baffle rivet holes per the plans.
