Thanks guys. You answered my question. I was hoping for hope that this wasn't me. I did everything I could think of at the time to keep it straight. I think it was too much pressure with the iron.

I'm keeping my wing to fix it later, but I get so sick to look at it that I've decided to do it again. This time I will use thick CA to attach the skins.

I have the ribs cut out and have most of the other material that I need ready to go. So, starting this weekend, I will be going on my Extra wing, TAKE 2!

I know my board is flat, and I am going to piece the wing together in the order I prefer. There are only a few differences that will be noticed. Primarily:

1. I will be assembling a different LE. I will use 3/8 balsa tri stock as a LE cap strip.
2. I will secure the TE as per instructions.
3. I will skin the wing. Add Cap Strips.
4. I will put a centerline to my ribs, LE, and TE. They will line up before they get glued.
5. I'm debating on losing the 3 TE rib jigs and running a solid rib jig from center wing to wing tip (Just like the Ultra Sport).
This should keep the TE straighter then the 3 jigs supplied with the kit. If I were the Mfgr, I would make this mod or include rib jigs on every rib.
6. Apply the LE. Shape it with the proper contour.
7. Work smarter.

Any other suggestions?

bigal,

I bet that you'll probably never notice the 1/2 degree. I simply cannot settle for anything less than perfect. If I were building mine for personal pleasure alone, I would be happy with that as well.

I really want this airplane. Looking forward to flying it. There are a few vidoes on youtube that I saw that would be nice to share of this plane. They all have an in-flight camera on board. If I can, I see if they can get posted here.
