13 OCT 14: Primed wing parts, page 9-18 step 7 (right tab): 7.5 hours
First batch of Akzo – waiting for the :30 mix time before shooting:
Patched my figure 8 dimple while waiting. The patch epoxied to the flange:
Wrapped a piece of .032 in packing tape so it won’t stick to
the epoxy:
Clamped together until it sets. Front:
Back:
First batch of parts drying:
Had to rivet the hinge on the second elevator trim tab, so I
could finish priming it:
Last batch for the night.
Always takes longer than I think it will due to having to wait for parts
to dry, mixing more batches of primer, etc.
Have ½ of a leading edge skin and an outboard wing skin remaining. Primed both elevator trim tabs, all leading
edge ribs, wing walk doublers, splice strips, all wing/leading edge stiffeners,
1.5 leading edge skins, and all but 1 of the top wing skins:
