Home Page Can you help page Restoration 2007 Diary Index Restoration 2008 Diary Index My First Flight in a Great Lakes	My Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 Rebuild Diary 2008. 23-January-2008. Right hand lower wing. No I have a replacement rib I can continue assembling the wing. I refitted the rib and tensioned the drag wires. This went okay, so I bonded the wood rib in place and fitted the packing pieces between the ribs on the rear spar. Bonding the rib in place.
	Rib in place, I will varnish it later. After the disaster of the old one splitting it is good to see the new one in place.
	These packing pieces are on the underside of the rear spar between the ribs. While I had some glue mixed up I bonded the inspection frame in place. After the glue has dried I will bond the other side of the rib.
