Manual Reference:  Fairing
Brief Description:  Right Wing Fairing 1

Transferred a parallel line from fuselage to the raw wing fairing and trimmed to that line with tin snips and finished the edge. I drilled out every other top skin rivet just like the left side so I can prepare attach holes for the fairing. The wing skin should have skipped every other hole with the skin was riveted on. Kept a 1/8 inch space between fuselage and fairing as I strap duplicated the wing skin hole onto the fairing. That worked nicely, clecoing as I progressed. Test fitted the rubber seal. It all works great.
