While moving my RV-12 around the hangar yesterday after replacing the nose fork and gear leg, my friend noticed some play in the left wing. At the root where the spar enters the through the fuselage the wing rocks horizontally about 1/4" - 3/8". No movement up and down vertically, but if you gently rock the wing at the tip side to side there is slight movement. I tried the same gentle movement on the right side and nothing. Rock solid in both directions.
Any suggestions as to what I may be dealing with? I know the pins locking the spar into place will keep the wing attached to the plane, but to my way of thinking any play in any direction can't be normal.
HELP!!!
