Title: Worked on multiple parts
Wings (Holden Glass + Maggie Colwell): Holden and Brady fluted the wing tip brackets to match the shape of the wing tip. Izzy and finished bending all the flanges. Maggie and Holden also put in the aft part of the wing tip. Holden finished the lighting wiring. There was 1 incorrect rivet that we will take out next time. Fuselage team (Rebecca Colwell): We are still missing 1 screw on the fuselage screen, however we were unable to get a new screw. We went ahead with the fuselage skin and started riveting it to the piece. We broke the skin with the tool, we deburred it and then clecoed it to the fuselage. We also attached doublers in the skin. These doublers will add strength to this part of the plane because this is where the landing gear is. When the plane lands these reinforcements will prevent the skin from buckling. (Mentors: This was added in later iterations of the design of the RV 12. Earlier versions did not have this and had some landing problems) Josh Weiss: I dimpled and did 28 nutplates for a part for the fuselage. I also worked on the longeron pieces. I had to use a saw to cut off some of the edges. This part will go along the fuselage. Mentors: We also recieved the avionics.
