Jonah wasn’t feeling well, so there aren’t many pictures. We got all the nutplates in the spar web installed, as well as some aileron bellcrank support fabrication, and much wing rib deburring and fluting.

Wing Spar Countersinking Complete
My shoulder hurt for a week.
These spars are really long.
Measuring every freaking hole is probably overkill, but 1/20 weren’t deep enough the first time.
Non-optional priming of areas where anodizing was removed by the countersinking. Q-tip dipped in primer sprayed into cup from rattle can.
.032″ “scrap” (we didn’t have any, had to order some), drilled, dimpled and turned into gauge.
If I’m going to have to prime the areas the anodizing was removed, I might as well prime the inexplicable 5″ spar extension.
Berck: 9 hours, Jonah: 2.75 hours
