Brief Description:  Right Leading Edge, Both Ailerons

I started today by riveting the outboard 5 ribs into the leading edge skin. I didn't rivet the inboard undersized rib, as I haven't yet primed or dimpled the joint plate. I started with the leading edge clecoed to the spar to help ensure proper alignment. I riveted all but the forward two rivets top and bottom on the outboard two ribs before returning the assembly to the cradle for access.

I then back riveted all 32 stiffeners to the aileron skins.

Rivets Today: 369
Rivtes Total: 5531
