Flap Fabric Backing Plates Installed

The fabric backing plates were epoxied and riveted in place.  After allowing the epoxy 24 hours to cure lightweight filler was used to smooth the transition from the backing plate to the leading edge and ribs.  This completes the pre-fabric work on the flaps.  Hours: 3
