Made the wing walk doubler, fitted the top skins to the skeleton. I also double checked the alignment of the skeleton to make sure it's square. The reading between the rear rib hole to the plumb bob line is about 1 4/32" at both the root and tip. I used the floss string to check the rivet holes at the front the spar flange, they all line up pretty good. The top skins are ready to be final drilled.
