Brief Description:  Port Side Wing Stub

I finished mounting the C1 wing rib at teh extremis of the port wing stub, as well as mounting the nose rib forward of the C1 wing rib. Please note, the nose ribs at stations C1 and C8 have undocumented cut-outs required to fit around the wing bolt plates.

I've got the wing walk reinforcements installed aft of the spar, and first of the wing walk reinforcements forward of the spar. I also have the wiring and fuel line mounting block installed inside the fuselage, just visible at the bottom of the lightening hole in the C2 nose rib. Not visible are the first couple of passes at mounting the throttle lever.

I also visited the nearby builder, Jon. I was able to provide a little bit of wiring guidance, and he helped me understand the bellcrank assmebly. Actually, he also gave me some nylon spacers and chromolly tube to use, so that will be a huge help.
