Well, after fudging around trying to see about moving the Rx and distribution center forward to allow for trimming down the side frames set it aside and started on the flaps. So far have one wing cut and am working on both flaps at the same time, using the one as a pattern for the second. These will be modified Fowler type that will allow air to flow up from the bottom over the flap. To do that I offset the front of the flap on a 45 degree angle and the hinge line will be below the wing slightly to allow for that travel. Still have not decided if the control will be hidden or not as this would have been much easier with the skins off.

Also doubled up the inner rib to leave some protection and better fit to the fuse sides.

Will have some pics later.
