Chapter 19 - Wings - Part 11

Yesterday some time was spend preping the bottom wing for glass. This included sanding down the lower wing foam in the spar cap vicinity to give a nice smooth transition to the spar cap. The hotwire process left the sparcap a little too deep in places. I will need a little extra mico fill to correct the wing contour at the finnish stage. The plans describe this situation so I am not concerned.

Marc Oppelt stopped by this afternoon and helped me glass the bottom of the left wing. Today was yet another example of the value of having another builder assist, It's almost like having two of yourself. I spend a lot of time just mixing epoxy while Marc wetted out the glass.

I may get up early tomorrow morning to knife trim the glass. If I do I will also spread dry micro into the trailing edge joggle. Then it will be time to reinstall the lower jigs and flip the wing over for the top skin.
