Default Wescraft PBY help

I am finishing a Wescraft 144" PBY that someone else started. It has a hollow foam core wing and the previous builder set one of the wing tubes off about 1/8 inch. I need to see the plans for this wing. I am assuming that there is a support rib sliced in under the sheeting at the far end of the tube. The wings are already sheeted so I need a plan to see where the false rib is for my repairs. Thanks for any help that you can give. God Bless! Kevin [email protected]

Take the wing into a dark room, then put a flood light up to the other side. It works like a poorman's Xray.
