Very gratifying to see those skins in place, isn't it, Ian?

It really is!
But then I think about how much work those holes represent... drilling, deburring, dimpling... hooboy, I'm a long way off from a finished wing!

Still has the plastic on.. I bet it still has that "new plane" smell too.
Nice! Can't wait until my wings show up now.

I'm always jealous when seeing parts that I haven't gotten to yet, even if they are for a 9
. Looks good!
