Riveted ribs

Riveted together the inner ribs with the angle rib brackets


Checked the bearing on the crankshaft by placing it into the casing together with the aft bearing. Sonex is correct, it fits without "sticking".

Wing ribs

Deburred and primed all the inner wing ribs and brackets and spacers.



Received message from Sonex that the outer wing rib is fixed by trimming the thick reinforcement plate in the aft spar. Also received message from Aeroconversions that the "sticky" bearing is OK because it will not run that far aft. I have to put it in the casing and see for myself. They also said the conrods were OK...
