Doug Eves sent this photo of the Ol' girl in flight. Taken from the ground, this is a great shot. You can see he is "relaxing" in his office in the sky...

Top Wing skin drilled

I have drilled on the top wing skin. I have mounted the stub rib to the rear spar and wing skin. I have also mounted the bellcrank braces at stations 73.5" and 83.5". This helps reinforce the bellcrank rib from forces applied by the aileron. I have also drilled on the leading edge skin to the top spar to mount it. I will clamp it down and put straps on next, then I will drill the rest of the skins on after that. I have to brace the root rib so it's square to the spar flange and then put thread-all in the leading edge ribs to keep them at equal distances apart.
