Today I have been working on the wingtips and everything was going pretty good. When I match drilled the holes into the wingtip and clecoed, everything looked really good. I then installed the nutplates and dimpled the skin, put on the wing and now have a bulge in the rear of the tip and also it looks like the tip is sagging.
I took the tip back off and checked to see if it was binding anywhere and does not seem to be. Not sure what could be causing it.
The tips was also to long by about 3/4" so I cut that off. If needed could separate the back of the tip and re-glass to see if it will fix the issue. Also, do not have the wingtip rib in place yet, that may also bring things back into place but do not thing it will fix the sagging look.
Here are some pictures, hard to see but you may get the idea. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
