Accidentally match drilled my HS-404's to the Front Spar, HS-710, and HS 714 prior to match drilling the skins. Read the directions as "Drill as depicted in diagram" and the diagram showed holes through all three (when in reality they needed to be aligned after clecoing the skin in place). I should have stopped and read further on in the directions as I sat there thinking how I was supposed to align the ribs in respect to their inboard/outboard location.
Now my skin on the right side overhangs the HS-404 rib by 1/16" in some places and 1/8" in others. The left side actually looks dead on. Looks like I'll be placing an order to Vans tomorrow.
