Brief Description:  Cut and fitting wing struts

Started off by adjusting dihedral back to 85mm at the root ribs. Double checked wings still perpendicular, which they were as expected. Angle of attack also as expected. Next, I clamped the rear attach points and upsized the rear attach point holes to 3/16". I'll go to final size once I have the new rear doublers riveted in case there is any slight change as a result. Placed gold clecos in the upsized holes.

Spent the rest of the day cutting/trimming the wing struts and loosely positioning the upper fittings in place. It was tough to get both strut fittings inside the strut and wing attach bolts in place. The fittings are VERY snug on the attach brackets. The upper fittings are not yet connected to the strut, but I wanted to get an approximate fit before drilling the struts and upper fittings and I wanted to see the plane with both wings and struts. Now that I know it goes together, next time I will disassemble and start putting the upper fittings on the struts.
