Today we began with assembling the right wing skeleton. It wasn't as easy or as quick as we had hoped but it is finished now. Looking back, we were much quicker then when we assembled the left wing but it didn't seem like it at the time. Once the assembly was done we hung the wing on the stand.
We then moved the large wing box to the assembly garage and unloaded all of the skins. We took a little time out of building to disassemble and cut up the wing crate so it could be taken away.
After that we match drilled the wing walk doubler to the main skin and installed them on the wing. Finally, we began the process of match drilling the skins to the skeleton.

The riveting of the ribs to the main spare is complete...

After picking up the skins from Darren's and emptying the shipping box it was time to break it down.
