Brief Description:  Fit, drill and finish the right wing leading edge

I know I said I was out of business because I ran out of 3.32 clecoes, but I could not just stop construction. I ended up canabalizing as many clecoes as I could from both wings.Jim Anderson came over and we put the right wing leading edge in the cradle and then clecoed all of the ribs to the skin. We then fit the leading edge assembly to the right wing main spar and drilled out the rib attachments to the main spar. Then, we fit and driled out the inboard most rib (which was not predrilled) and the joint attachment strip (which will help attach the fuel tank. Finally, we drilled out the hole for the tiedown ring in the bottom skin of the leading edge.Next, we go on to the fuel tanks. We got out the left fuel tank skin and placed it in the cradle with the tank ribs just to see what it will look like. This time, I really can't do any more tank assembly without buying some 3.32 clecoes. I will start on the fuel tank Z brackets, however, while I am waiting for the clecoes and the proseal to come in from Vans.
