Dec 22, 2023 6 continued working on wings Category: Wings
I made a drift pin out of a hardware store bolt for teh aft spar bolt. This holes were reamed out vert precisely and I don't want to botch them up by trying to align everything by just cranking a bolt in there.

Access to the fwd side of that point is extremely limited, so I stared the bolts by maneuvering them in place with a pair of needle nose pliers. Not much else to say about that. 3 washers, a castle nut and a cotter pin per print. done with that step.

After that, I put the nuts on the NAS close tolerance bolts and torqued everything to spec, including the two AN bolts per side that go into nutplates on the spar web that Vans has a service letter about people missing.

Kriya swung by the hangar after work to see what I've been doing since I've moved everything down there, which was fun :)

I also pulled pitot and AOA lines from the fuselage through the left wing to the general vicinity of where the pitot mast will live, which took a while. I'll get back to that at a later date.
