Match Drill - Both F/R Wing Spars

Got some flights in this weekend as well as some RV building. While Tad is working on the Right Wing rib prep work and priming the tie-down pieces, I matched drilled all the holes in the Ribs for the left wing to both Front and Rear Spars.
It went pretty smoothly and all the holes lined up better than I remember from the last trial-fit. Anyway, that is done now.
Need to clean up the holes for the Pitot tube grommets and then drill the Conduit Holes for each rib. I'll probably measure out one and then cleco each one to the master and just match drill it with a smaller drill size. Then I will go back with the Step Drill and enlarge them.

NutPlates for Wing Spar

no updates for a while, i know. i have taken on a new job so time on the RV is getting a little more difficult. PLUS, i bought a little Citabria and am busy getting my tail-wheel endorsement.
i have been spending time on the Wings but just haven't posted much!

Finally we have all the nut-plates riveted on and have done a lot of deburring on the ribs. Tad stopped by the other day and we assembled and riveted both rear spars together.

the left wing is now ready for match drilling the ribs to spar and will need to drill the conduit hole as well. most likely going with the 3/4" from Van's or something else if we can find it locally!

I sent Tad home with the right wing main ribs for homework:) I want to make sure he doesn't miss out on any of the fun of deburring! Good work Tad!
