Brief Description: Left wing constructon

A long day in the garage working on the left wing. Fineshed the riveting on both left and right rear spars. This took a long time because of all the diffrent rivet lengths and the areas that dont get a rivet at this time. Lots of paying attention to the pring here. Jenny helped with the riveting of the ribs to the front spar and I did all of the riveting to the rear spar with the squeezer. I added the support to the bottom of the rear spar after putting wing in the jig. I will fabricat the lower supports for the jig on Monday.

Jenny had a stiff neck all day but the little trooper helped rivet the ribs to the spar.

Left front spar riveting went well.

She is haning in the jig.
