Thank you for the images gangeli.
flydog and Keith103.. thanks... If you look at the first image I posted, it's from the full size rib drawing. It says "NOTE cut off 1/4" ribs at this point for ribs # 4 and #7". That point is forward of the forward spar. The top of the image is cut off, but says there to trim ribs at the forward rib vertical; the part the butts against the forward spar.
The instructions for building the wing, which is the second image, says to trim all ribs to the forward vertical, so there's a conflict in the plans with that.
For now, I'm leaving ribs #4 and #7 with the extended capstrip in case there's some reason. I can always trim it.
Maybe the first note refers to the nose ribs #4 and #7 and those get trimmed to a shorter length? Guess I'll see during construction.
