Identified Wing Ribs
I took the time tonight to identify and mark all wing ribs. This was a surprisingly time consuming process because there are three types on main ribs (on the left) and four types of leading edge ribs (on the right), and all of these come in left-handed and right-handed variants. Also, each wing has a mix of the left and right handed variants and they don't follow any simple pattern. Basically, you have to study the plans and make sure you're using the right rib in the right spot. I have all of these stamped now, and I've double checked them, so it will be easy when it comes time to attach these to the spar.
