Getting ready to install the fabric to the main wing. Darrell, the skinner today cut the red and white fabric, from the bolts of cloth; he will sew the two colors together. While he’s doing that, I am installing the cable hooks to the ends of each wing rib; I put a small cotter pin in a hole drilled in the rib ends secured with a drop of glue. Later I will feed a 1/16 in. cable thru the eyelets of the cotter pins the length of the wing. This will create an anchor point for the fabric at the leading and tailing edges of the wing.
