The repairs to the wing secondary spar started with cutting off additional covering checking the next bay for damage. There was none. Then the damaged section was cut with two 45 degree cuts. A new balsa spar was glued into place with corresponding 45 degree ends.




The same was then performed from the other side with new balsa spar glued into place and adding reinforcing piece over the joint
