I don't know what I was thinking... One thing I do know, is that if I couldturn back time, I would attach the wing spars to the center spars beforeany kind of building.Snap a 30 ft. chalk line and fit the 3 spars together, nicely butted, andfabricate and drill the brackets. Only thing to deal with is sliding allthe ribs on from the tip end due to the ply glued on the spar at the buttjoint. That would have been nothing compared to what I'm doingnow.....trying to attach brackets to the wing, and have everything come outstraight.should have worn my "Thinking Cap" more.walt evans________________________________________________________________________________
