Wings are Complete - Left Wing Completed & Found Loose Part
Completed the left wing by attaching the bottom wingtip panel and then the aft bottom panel. The bottom wingtip panel with its compound curve fit perfectly. Two wings are now in the cradle!! A short break and on to the assembly of the flaperons.
When we flipped the wing over yesterday, I heard something rattling in the wing. It sounded like a rivet or a rivet mandrel. This morning I looked and found what appears to be a portion of the shop end of one of the pop rivets. Found it in the far outboard bay next to the wingtip. Any ideas?? e-mail: marty.santic@gmail.com
