The first wing is complete, minus the covering, now
time to start on the second. Today is Tuesday June 6, 2000 and when I
arrived at Mike's, the second wing is ready to be riveted. However, Mike
wants to spray the wing with an anti-corrosive element that will last for
years. This picture is the wing with all of the hardware removed: 
Now, with the
gussets, braces, etc laying on a flat surface, Mike begins to spray them: 
Here is a closer
view: 
And here you can see
a rib after it has been drilled and sprayed beside one that has not: 
Next we will drill
the holes in the ribs and the wings will be finished except for the covering and
painting which we will do all at the same time. Now we wait for the
fuselage to arrive...
