RV-9A Wing Construction Log

Finished countersinking
I finished countersinking the main spar for the tank dimples. I pulled the wing skeleton off the stand and have it on the table so I can buck a few of the nut plate rivets I couldn't squeeze. Then I can get the skin on and back in the stand.
FWIW, prior to moving, I cleco'd the top skin on while the wing was on a table and then put it in the stand. I think this is a good way of doing it, as you can get the spar straight while on the table, cleco the skin on, which then holds it straight when you put it back on the stand.
(Time: 1 hour)
