Wings, flaps progress
Tag: Clecoing
Wings, skins continued…
Fabrication of left wing torque tube to bellcrank pushrod.
Left wing torque tube to bellcrank pushrod temporarily installed.
Left wing inboard area ready to be enclosed.
Left wing inboard bottom skin ready for riveting.
Wings, skins progress
Left inboard bottom skin clecoed in place.
Left outboard bottom skin being test fitted.
ADAHRS bracket components primed. Given my choice of Garmin avionics, this will be adapted to hold the magnetometer instead.
Wings, fuel tanks assembly
Right tank stiffeners riveted and ribs clecoed in place. What a bear it is to form the skin around the nose of the ribs. Much tougher (due to the thicker skin) than the outboard leading edges.
Glad that’s behind me!
Right tank ribs and J-stiffener sealed to skin.
