Brief Description:  Wing struts

Detached pilot side strut and drilled lower side of upper strut and upper attach bracket to size 20 and cleco'd. Reattached the strut to the plane and drilled through to other side size 20 holes. Removed strut and upsized holes for AN4 bolts. Deburred and bolted and torqued the upper bracket to the strut. Reattached the strut to the plane. Then repeated the process for the right wing. Checked dihedral still at 85mm. Removed temporary supports and dihedral dropped to 75mm. My temp supports were pretty far outboard and I didn't account for the wing flexing when support was moved inboard to the strut attach point. Sent Roger an email. If I need to adjust the dihedral I should just need new upper strut attach brackets C75W7-4 and extend them a little bit farther before drilling through the existing holes in the strut. In any event, it is good to see Sierra supporting her own wings for the first time.

Note from future self: Roger said I would never notice the difference on the dihedral, so no need to get new parts and redrill.
