Aircraft yaws after cartwheel!

I did a cartwheel with my Venus on a windy day. Checked and everything seems to be alright, though one of the wing bolts stripped out of the wing but the hold-down and the blind nut are solid.

RE: Keith Sparks A-10 Warthog buildup

Thanks. I have the same FAQ from Keith, but still can't figure out if I am suppose to glue D1/D2 to the skin before bending it around or after? If after, then does it go on the inside? thanks, Sina
