April 27th, 2008 RV-6a left wing

Today we riveted the bottom outside skin for the left wing. The plans say to do the top skins last, which is what we did on the right wing. Its a little more difficult to do the bottom wing skins last, but the theory was that the top skins would look better if we did them first.
We have a final row of rivets to do yet, then we will mount the wings to the fuselage at long last.

















We almost forgot to run the conduit for the electrical wiring inside the wing before closing it all the was up. It helps to have a long reach for this if you forget.
