I can see what you guys are saying, but surely the only rib that I can, or should have to apply epoxy to is the final rib on each wing? As an ARTF, the parts that have already been constructed should be adequately glued already. At the very least this is a fault in the actual wing design with the ribs the way they are. As you can see in the photos, the ribs that I had epoxied are still together. Anyway, if the wing joiner had been up to the job in the first place, then this probably wouldnt have happened.
I will be taking the remains into my LHS where the kit was purchased and requesting a replacement model - and it wont be a Great Planes kit!
It looks from the picture that there isn't any epoxy at all covering the root ribs (the ribs with the inspection stamp on them), the entire root ribs should be coated, not just the edges??
