Brief Description:  Prepping wings for skinning #5

Well since the left wing tank is done and I don't have time in my sessions before work to finish the right tank baffle installation, I moved back over to prepping the left wing for skinning. I work in sections just like the skins. There are two skins (top/bottom -inboard & outboard) on each side of each wing (L/R). So I deburred, dimpled, and countersunk the left wing upper surface inboard part of the skeleton. Good progress and easy work. Hopefully I can move back onto the right tank this weekend and finish it up.
