I went to Oklahoma City to see Rush over the weekend. Of course they were awesome. The even had a really funny intro to Tom Sawyer. Take a look:
4/7/08 - I took my first lesson in N474SW. Its a Remos G-3 at Summit Aviation in Bentonville, AR. She sure is fun to fly!
ALL OF THE RIBS!!!!!!!!!!
They still need a little cleaning up and some holes need to be flanged. At least I am making progress.

Here I am finishing up a couple of rib forming blocks.
There are a total of 18 wing rib forming blocks. Notice the Jig I made to make the relief cuts on the blocks.
Good old Dad!
Thanks to good old dad I have a little more progress. My dad had a set of flanging dyes made by a local machine shop where he lives. He brought them to me over the weekend for my birthday. What a great dad! The other cool thing is that the machinist had a homebuilt airplane hanging in his shop.
This is what I am building.
