Brief Description:  drilling the wing attach angles

As mentioned before I'm first trying to copy the existing enlarged holes to the first set of the new attach angles so that I don't have to do the scary drilling with the wings installed on the fuselage anymore.
If it doesn't work I have a second set of attach angles with no holes pre-drilled to do it the classic way.
The holes in the old angles were only slightly enlarged, too small to make any sort of bushing from tubes or whatever so I made a bushing from a coke can, cutting it into small strips and rolling one into the enlarged hole. This worked perfectly, I was able to drill a new hole precisely centered in the old enlarged hole.
I've also had my order from McMaster arrive, a set of 3/8" x 4" hitch pins, I believe these are the ones Sonex use in their aircraft rather than the AN6 bolts. They will be easier to install and remove than the bolts.
