Check out the wing ribs reflecting in the skin on the second picture. I need to figure out that flash a bit more on the camera.

Ailerons
Ok, just like the wings, I got going a bit further on one aileron than the other and just kept going. I will catch up quickly, but now I have one that is almost ready for final riveting. I will get more pics of the interim steps on the next aileron, but the below pics show the jig I am using to rivet the top skin onto the spar. On the ailerons, you are supposed to rivet the top skin in the best way possible, then turn it upside down on a flat table with weights on it so that when the bottom skin pop-rivets go in, the aileron is straight.
