Brief Description:  Leading Edge - Put Joint Plate On Outbd Ldng Edge

I put on the inboard rib and joint plate and then drilled all the holes. This was difficult and I loss some blood doing it. You have to measure and make sure that 11/16 or 22/32's of the joint plate is revealed beyond the end of the skin AND make sure the web of the rib is about the same or slightly more distance, but not to much. If the rib is inserted too far your hole will miss the flange. If the rib is not in far enough the hole will be too close to the flange edge. Mine are okay. I'm only partially happy because a few holes are really close to the web. But this is better than being too close to the edge. So these are okay. Notice I had to use a hammer. shshshsh
