\"Kwik-Fli,<\/a><\/p>\n

30 May 2011<\/strong>. I found some Kwik Fli II formers and I made other \u201cmasks\u201d. I\u2019m also ready to sue the Mk. III wing jig, even without the full sheeting of the wing. I think that I can pin the front and back sheeting on the jig and proceed. One thing I\u2019ll have to consider is the Square L.E. that must be slightly shaped to be positioned on the jig.<\/p>\n

Another thing is the dihedral: the spars and doublers are cut exactly in accordance with a specific dihedral and I hope that they are the same\u2026 Everything else should fall in place quite nicely, and it is very convenient to be able to assemble the entire wing on the jig, without removing it until the end. The result should be a real \u201ctrue\u201d wing! I\u2019ll have to cut other two ribs: strange enough, the main landing gear plywood center rib is just that, a \u201ccenter rib\u201d, simply glued to the front and rear spar. I do not like it! For a very small weight penalty, I would rather prefer to cut two more ribs (medium-hard balsa), epoxy the plywood center ribs to them and have a much stronger landing gear structure!<\/p>\n
