I realized where my error was and did not have any problems with the remaining leading edge skins.. I have the wooden skins. I am seeking advice on the best method to get the skin to bond to these rib sections?? My original thought is to drill two holes over the voids and squeeze in the micro. After completing that,I will tape them down properly for a good contact and curing. Any thoughts, words of wisdom, or guidance will, as always be valued tremendously.

The problem with such a "repair" is that the surfaces would have to be sanded before it could get a good bond, and if it is not accessible, that is not possible. What you suggested would maybe fill the void, but not bond properly. The only way to fix it correctly would be to cut out the skin in the problem area and scarf in a new piece. But: if the area is small, I would just leave it alone (only for ribs, not for spar), or just fill the voids.
