Noticed my furthest inboard rib wasn't square so cut the trailing edge apart and redid it.

I like 'em "BIG"!
Thanks to your typical awesome person, I can touch up the covering. Big thanks to 'stangflyer for the repair pieces.

After looking at that area again, I am starting to wonder if it wouldn't just be best to completely remove the wrinkled covering. In the past, I have seen Ultracoat that has been heated repeatedly and shrunk over and over become hard as the hubs of hell. I have tried to salvage pieces that have been overly heated and shrunk and seriously, there was nothing I could do about it. By completely cutting that bad section out, you eliminate the possibility of the wrinkle coming back..."under" the new sectioned in patch piece. I figure if it is going to have a patch either way, I would just remove the "affected" area and put down a clean patch. Just a thought....

Coming along one piece at a time. Looking good. What is that wrapped around the wing tip edge looks like white paper what is it for.
