Left Wing Rear Spar Assembly

We spent some time on Friday night assembling the rear spar.  We riveted the stiffner plates and the spar doubler to the rear spar.  It wasn't a ton of work but we also worked on the attach brackets.
We took Saturday off as we went to the football game in Hamilton.  We had great seats in the first row and for those of you who watched the game we were right beside the TV cart when Eddie Davis got smacked into it.  I can't believe he got up after that hit.  It was an amazing game and the Riders won so it was a great day! 

The parts laid out for the evening's work.

We got to hear the Tigercat's Cheer.... Something like "Oscar-wee-wee, Oscar-wah-wah, Tigercats eat'em RAW!"  


Our Saskatchewan Roughriders out on the field. 


A parting shot of the Scoreboard... I know you cannot see it but it was a 33-28 win for the Riders.

For the record the Ti-cats fans were great, and Ivor Wynne ranks as the best place to watch a CFL game in Eastern Canada by a wide margin.   The stadium is in a sketchy looking neighbourhood, but the people, and game time environment make it a great place to take in a game.
