Wings



I'm still waiting for the wings to be delivered so I decided to finish up the wing cradle today. I had most of the parts cut out already from the session the other day, so I mostly had to just assemble everything. The only thing left is to staple some carpet pieces on the end where the spar will sit. I had to glue some 1x2 pieces for reinforcement on that end and will wait a day for the gule to set up.


With no airplane project to work on I spent some time playing around with fiberglass tip on the rudder today too. It wasn't a very close fit so used a little glazing putty to give it a better shape and closer fit to the vertical stabilizer and then primed it. Nothing else to do now but wait for the wings to get here.
