Pre-EAA Update

Ribs glued to spars on lower LH wing

Didn't want my followers to think I've been goofing off!  I got the ribs glued to the spars on the lower LH wing and all the associated fittings painted.  A little OX-5 work too - main bearings cleaned up and some hardware/components cleaned up to be sent to the platers for a fresh coat of nickel plating.

We will be heading to EAA this coming Thursday and will be there at least a week.  The Funk will be coming again.  I'll be doing my usual volunteer work in the Builder Education Center - primarily in the sheet metal forum.  Cindy is planning on working in the VAA Red Barn Store.  We're looking forward to seeing all our friends we usually only get to see once each year.  So, it will be a couple of weeks before a new post.  If you're going to EAA - have fun!!

Wing fittings were hung with care, in hopes that St. Nick...
