Yes my planking actually came out decent. I will not need much filler on bottom exposed areas.
I have sanded already and glassed inside. I will soon prep out side with spackle and sand to finish and get ready for covering.

I have all my top formers in place and will be back out there soon to install full length stringers and then once again try planking the top. That should be a bit easier as the curves arent as compound.

I already temp mounted the wing using the fuse tail as a reference point, so it is drilled with smaller screws for now, and waiting on tail installation to make sure my measurements were good enough, then 1/4 x 20 blind nuts are going in and tail and wing will be done.
