The sounds of pneumatic rivet guns were
heard throughout the session today as more work continued on the left
wing. Green team finished riveting the upper wing skins along with
the hinge bracket assemblies.
Purple Team provided some assistance
with the wing assembly, creating and attaching the handhold as well
as the bottom, aft, and forward wing tip skins. A couple of the
members began preparing the wing tip close-out toward the end of the
session, which included some precise bending and naturally, some
deburring.
The blue team spent the day working on
some flight control assemblies, specifically the flaperon pushrods,
control stick pushrods, and bellcranks.
The red team continued and finished
both the left and right flaperon assemblies. This included riveting
the counterbalance, brackets, nose and main ribs, and the flaperon
skins. Both are ready and waiting to be attached to the wings.
With the left wing near completion,
assembly began on the right wing which means a lot more riveting is
in store for next week.
