Default RE: NEW BUILDERS JET KIT VAMPIRE

hehe....I still need to glue in the middle 9mm planking on the lower fuselage, then I will cut out the hatches.
Thought i`d give the wing a go just for a change

A notch on wing rib W7 traling edge is cut in the wrong place, but no big deal to cut a new one just infront of it.

The top view of the wing says to pack up the rear wing spar with an 8mm shim.
But a side view says 16mm, and that one is correct.

Also, if you have the wing joiner tubes when you assemble the wing, remember to slide in the small aft 1/2 " outer paper tube before gluing the ribs, as it cant be inserted after assembly.

My joiner tubes are in the mail, and will be here next week. Im going to make a hole in the first W1 rib so I can insert it through there......but it is not according to plan
