Finished rib prep: 7.5 hours

I finished all the edge finishing, flange straightening, and fluting for all 20 right wing ribs. If the fuel tank weren't already done I would be doing a lot more prep work.

I also drilled holes for snap bushings for wiring in all the main ribs. I'm not putting any conduit in this wing but I have plenty of room for wiring runs need and one extra run for future expansion.

I also was able to get the spars and main ribs clecoed together on the stand. I also started match drilling the ribs to the spar.

 

It's very familiar and going together much faster than the left wing.
