Inserted the W-919 Doubler strip

I talk about this part a lot more here when I did the left wing, so I didn't put as much detail on this part. This is quite a wrestling match to put this dude in. I did a pre-bend on the strip by laying the strip over the leading edge assembly and then cut it size. I marked a line on the strip with a sharpie to help line up the strip with the skin holes. After getting everything in place, I final drilled the rib and doubler strip using the pre-drilled holes in the skin. Tomorrow I will finish final drilling the whole lead edge assembly.
