Default Goldberg eagle II build

I hope I can ask some of the Gurus here about this build.

I think I have it figured out but want confirmation.


The wing ribs #2 are causing the top spare to come proud of wr 3 and the 4 closest to the wing center.

It looks like the sheeting applied later on will actually butt against the top spar on either side the wing rib.. Is that correct?

Or do I need to sand the top spar notch on #2 ribs to bring the spar down so that it is flush with top of the rib?

Or does this belong in Kit Building?

It can go in either forum as far as I'm concerned. Beginner builder. Some kits do butt the sheeting up to the spar instead of passing over it. Look closely both at your plans and instructions. Is there a side view to look at?

No,
No side view. Pics in the manual are not too clear. The plans however show the grain of the to sheeting ending at the spar. I just want to be sure before I glue.

Thanks for the response.

You are correct in that the wing sheeting will butt up flush against the spar. That's why the spar 'sticks up' from those ribs, so the sheeting will be level with the top surface of the spar. I've built a couple of Eagles.
