I kept moving on the wings by making sure that the left wing spar was straight, level, and free of twist. Then, there was nothing left to procrastinate on with the left wing leading edge. I used the same rotating-head rivet puller with the ever-so-slightly ground down tip along with my homemade rivet-pulling wedge to angle the stems and therefore rivet puller away from the rib webs.The part looks good sitting on the spar! At this point, the ribs are pop-riveted to the spar.
All the rivets connecting the skin to the spar have been squeezed.
No with the top skins and fuel tank mounted for a fit check.
Next up will be riveting the top skins to the wings!
