Default RE: 1/3 Vickers F.B.19 MKII

Almost ready to start gluing. Just need to finish sanding the ribletts to their final shape. The window frame and T/E cutout are made from 1/8" light ply. I'll use a piece of lexan plastic for the window. It will be sandwiched in between two frames. Rib caps will fall even with the frame. I had to relieve the holes in the ribs so the leading edge was straight. I have made some shims which will be glued to the ribs and the spars and fit the spars perfectly.
