More work on leading edge for right aileron & flap

We continued working on the leading edge for the right aileron and flap (similar to what we've already done on the the same parts for the left side).  We filed a few false ribs so that they would fit around the hinges and bell-crank, prepped the fiberglass surface for gluing, and then epoxied 14 false ribs into the leading edge of the right aileron.  After the epoxy had set for about an hour, we smoothed the glue fillets.  We also prepped the right flap for the same procedure, but will epoxy the false ribs into that flap another day.  Hours: 2.5
