We finally started work modifying the right leading edge cuffs so they fit on the wing. We first had to fold out the right wing and add the front wing root fairing. The edge of the fairing marks the starting point for the leading edge cuff. We marked the starting point and then folded the wing back. We first modified the in-board cuff such that it cleared the jury strut mount bracket on the wing. This required many fittings and trimmings to the the correct fit. Once it was successfully modified it was temporarily taped in place. The second, out-board cuff, needs to be modified to clear the main strut attach bracket. That was started, but not completely finished. Hours: 2.5
