The original root faux rib template that has been cut out is in correct positon as on the real aircraft. However, since I'm building the panels separately from the center section, I may have to deviate and add another faux rib right at the edge where the wheel well outline and wing panel ends at the root. I'm thinking this should close up the "box" that is the shape of the wheel well and give added support to the edge of the outline. While holding the wing, I could see the foil hanging over the edge. Keep in mind that I'm also trying to maintain the airfoil of the underside of the wing. This picture shows the wing panel upside down. So, everything will depend upon the close tolerances of the faux ribs and the integrity of the whole construction. Opinions? Suggestions?
