Brief Description:  Cleco on the R-Wing Skins

16-2:
Step 1: Clecoed on the Wing Walk Doublers, J-Stiffeners, Inner and Outer Top Right Wing Skins. Rolled the wing up on its nose and checked for alighnment issues. Had a look at one of the forward tabs I had hammered straight after riveting the forward hole so the aft hole would align. I managed to straighten the tab but put a small bend in the side of the rib adjacent to the tab. I inspected closely, saw no evidence of cracking so straightened is some and all looked well. Interestingly, I remember seen someone on line show where a repair had been made to his quick-build wings in the same area. Now I know how they did the damage. They must have given it a big whack and tore the rib, thus the patch that was shown on line. Fortunately, I did not hit this one that hard. Included a picture below of J-Stiffener joint for those interested.
