I have my first bottom wing almost completed and am getting ready to complete the wing walk. My question to the group is the top surface of the wing walk. If I lay a straight edge across the top of my ribs, aft of the rear spar, it does not contact the top of the end rib. My end rib is cut very close to the full scale drawing and the bottom surface conforms well to the bottom of the wing. The top surface conforms to the top of the wing until aft of the rear spar where the end rib tapers faster than the wing rib. This will cause the wing walk to slant toward the fuselage near the trailing edge. Is this to be expected?
I miss Scott and his site more and more each day, he was a great resource.
