Finishing Tapes On Root Ribs and Aileron Cutouts


 We had another warm dry day and I was able to get the tapes on the corners of all the root ribs as well as the tape on each root seam.
 Just like I did for the ailerons I made pieces which covered the end rib for the aileron cutout in one piece.  This gives a total of 4 layers of fabric in the aileron end gap, as little as is possible.  I made the cover piece so it goes around the corner .  The spanwise tapes for the cutout will overlap it to close the corner.

Hopefully I can start the spanwise tapes on the next warm day.
