Started work on the left wing skins
The instructions say to "make" the W-927 wing walk doublers, which are 2 small sheets of aluminum that go over the ribs, which are the ones that are closest together right next to the fuselage on both wings (1 sheet on each wing). These sheets go under the outer skin and help strengthen the area where the pilot and/or passenger get in and out of the cockpit. Thanks to somebody at Vans, they were already "made". Here I have placed the W-927 walk doubler under the outer skin (W-902) and taped it into position 9/16" aft of the top skin front edge. Then, using the top skin as a guide I drilled holes into the wing doubler at the 8th the 15th and the 22nd hole from the forward edge of the top sheet.
