Take a look at this...
Anyone seen this before? If so, did you overcome it by bending the TE on the brake?
It appears that the holes in the top skin do not line up with the holes in the skeleton. To cleco the top skin to the bottom of the wing (where it wraps around) I have to push down and forward, causing what you see in the picture. If I hold the pieces together where I think they should be for a nice flat top and bottom, all the holes on the bottom are about 1D off.
Bending the TE on the brake might help a bit, but for a truly flat fit, I will need to push the holes on the bottom surface of the top skin forward and I am not sure how to accomplish that.
Any suggestions?
I am going to send an email to Van's, but thought I would ask here as well.
