Got started today by riveting the aft ribs to the left wing main spar.
Once the ribs were installed, the KAI's have you rivet on the rear spar. The inboard most rib needs to be match drilled to the rear spar and the hinge bracket.
After disassembly and deburring, I riveted the rear spar to the aft ribs. Pay attention to the rivet call outs as some are longer than others and some are countersunk flush rivets.
Next I riveted the aft ribs on the right spar. Some of these are a bit different as they get attached to the angle and the flange gets attached to the spar web.
I used the angle wedge and the cardboard to pull the rivets and to protect the rib web.
Right aft ribs and rear spar all riveted.
