I want to thank everyone for the help on mounting the wings. The mounting went
without a hitch today. The hardware store bolts just slipped right in with no
problem. Highly recommend. I would say that they will be very useful in the
initial alignment prior to inserting the close-tolerance bolts too.
Once the wings were on, I just had to put all the other stuff on the plane to get
an idea of what it looked like. Awesome! I thought I'd share a couple of
pictures... Yahoo!
Thanks again!
