RV-9A Wing Construction Log
Thursday, December 30, 2004
Right wing done!
I finished riveting the bottom skins on the right wing this morning. All went well. I only managed to severly mangle one rivet that was right next to the flap bracket. Good thing it's on the bottom. :-)
Here I am towards the end of the right wing.
I contemplated pulling out the flaps and ailerons but the weather was so unusually warm, I stowed the wings away again. It was a nice break from the canopy construction and now all that remains is too attach the wing tips, landing lights and nav lights.... and of course to mate them to the fuse!
Back to the finish kit construction....
(Time: 3 hours)
