Wing Ribs – Part 3

Today I got some additional help in the garage.  My oldest was nice enough to help out her dad on the plane wile my wife and my youngest were off shopping.

We worked on attaching and match-drilling the ribs on the main spar.  It took me a few tried to properly translate what was written on the page to where and which direction each spar needed to face.  Once we figured it out, it was an easy process to put it together and match drilled.

This does make me wonder how to best pipeline the build to make sure I have sufficient room.  Another EAA table would be helpful, but really don’t have the space for another table.  I still have a wing cradle I need to pick up from a local EAA member in the next few weeks hopefully, but just need to work out where it will go.
