A little more work was done today, finished shaping the wing leading edge and trailing edge and cut out the ailerons. And 3D guy, I will post some sketches later tonight. Roger

Here is two sketches of the webbing I spoke about. the one with the side webbing is relying totally on the glue to hold things together, while the other one with the webbing sandwiched between the two stringers relies on the strenght of the webbing itself. Roger

In these photos, I am installing the hinge blocks in the wings and ailerons before I install the trailing edge of the wing aileron cutout and the leading edge of the ailerons. Also before the we close these off , I have also installed a hard wood control horn point . The boost tabs will be cut out once this is all done.. Roger
