Brief Description:  Remove Wing 7: Wing nose platenuts

The nose of the wing alse gets platenuts. I was able to pull each wing, one at a time, off the cradle and set it on a padded floor to work on the inboard rib.

I debured the holes, drilled the platenut holes. I've stopped using that dumb platenut jig. It just doesn't work. The #40 holes are enlarged and don't line up anymore. So I'm using platenuts as their own guide.

Then I debured and dimpled the holes in the fairings. I clecoed the fairings to the side of the wing for safe keeping for now.
