Default RE: Skydrill kit build

Got the wing center section sheeted top and bottom and trimmed the little "jig" tabs from the ribs. Also cut off and sanded the lateral pieces extending beyond the outboard rib flush. Bevel-sanded the 1/4" wing trailing edge down to 3/16" to match the aileron/trailing edge stock. I still haven't figured out how I want to build the wingtips yet.

Decided it was time for a mockup, so I drilled the engine mount holes so I could hang it up front for some pics. I love the sleek lines of this bird.
