Port side peel ply removed. Oh notice the caps in the sockets. What I did was take a block of foam and push it down in the socket, then took it back out and covered it with car wax. Once all the ribs are in I'll see how it worked.

To make our backs happy and life 1000% easier we tilted the fuselage. Notice I used my monowheel trailer as a jig. A tow strap 4" wide was used in the rear to hold the tail. This was rock solid.

Ensure you have a good key. I used the drill press to create the dimples. These will be filled with 420 and flox when doing the glass layups.

Started to make the axle jig. Used a simple setup of first taking large flat blocks of wood and caulking it to the floor somewhere over FS70. Then that allows me to fix the aluminum angle with a single screw once in its final position.

OK now that the plane is off the trailer and on its own wheel we were able to remove most of the trailer hardware and position the ribs. We also used the main bolts to hold the first rib in place. The other rib was left a little lower to be located once
