I built a leading edge cradle to hold both the leading edge and fuel tanks during the construction phase. Leading was clekoed together and placed on the spar. Oooooooo, really starting to become an airplane, and damn is this thing becoming SOLID.
The joint plate strip that goes between the leading edge and the tank came attached to the tank skin, PRE-PUNCHED…. Thank you Vans!!! Everything fit together perfectly and it was nice to see that I indeed straightened the ribs correctly. All holes final size reamed here as well.
