23rd. At long last, finding a little time to work on getting the left wing riveted, after a long hiatus from building. Since the last report in December 2008, there has been little progress. The plan is to build small angle brackets to rivet to the forward ribs and tie-wrap the wiring conduit to it, and install the landing light brackets between the ribs before closing the wings. The lens cutouts in the leading edge will come later.
