I finally fitted the ribs over the rear spar yesterday.  Its great how all those little parts can become something so big and awesome looking!!  I can sight down the trailing edge and just barely see any deviation.  Hopefully now it will go together quickly.

Yeah, I haven't added anything to the basic ribs yet.  They are just sanded and cut to length.

Excellent work, I like the long plane shavings and curles. The next step of gluing it together should be done slowly.  Savor the time as you dont get to do it very often.  Its a wing, enjoy.
