Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 Rebuild Diary

My Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 Rebuild Diary 2008.

24-March-2008. Fabric covering L/H Upper wing.
Easter Monday and work has progressed well over the easter break, yesterday I covered the R/H upper wing. Today I have to finish a few small jobs on the R/H upper wing and start covering the L/H. In the end I was only able to cover one side of the wing as the temperature dropped too low to continue.

These strips are screwed to the spar in the aileron bay. Thought it would be wise to have then in place before shrinking the fabric!
