      Clean ribs and check the fit with pine spar and other pieces. They need some little rework as the general alignment is not normal. Put a transparent film over the sheet and place ribs. Don't glue it now!  I did use the plywood vertical spar reinforcement and a Duplo block as reference for distance and square. The last rib distance will be shorter. The first two plywood ribs are 3mm offset backwards, because there will be a 3mm plywood piece in front of them. Important! Use the servo base to check that distance (should be the same). Glue all ribs with thin cyano. Please note that dowel holes are offset, to match leading edge. Please remember:  - wings are swept forward!  - one left and one right panel are needed - check twice, glue once   Place some scrap balsa under the plywood sheet, to avoid compression when fixing wing to fuselage. Trim it to ribs level.

      Measure following drawings and trace on the sheet. Increase chord by 1mm to compensate for camber. Measure again and cut.  Put the piece on the rest of the sheet and cut a second one.  Repeat for the other wing. Please remember:  - Measure twice, cut once!
