Wing Tips Finished and Wings Finished!

Published by olanandkate on

Man it was a long day but I really wanted to wrap up on the wings today before I packed up for the wiring class tomorrow. I talked with my EAA tech counselor and he had a nut plate jig that I could borrow. Man that thing was awesome! Made the work so much faster! I got all of the nut plates installed, installed the lights and mounted the wing tips. Of course I’m leaving out steps of dimpling, countersinking, etc. which was a huge amount of the work.

Now, when I say the wings are done, there is still some fine tweaking to do on them when I get them mounted and plus I still have to mount nut plates and mount the adel clips for the wiring for the pitot controller and I left the light support out on the right wing tip light so I’m going to have to take the wing tip off again and put that in before I can call that done. Plus I do still need to finish the wiring harnesses for the wing tips but I want to go through this class and do some research before I do that. All in good time
