Wing Kit Delivery:  February 18, 2014
Picture
The wing kit came on February 18, 2014 while I was in Florida.  Rafael was able to un-crate the the main parts box and get through the inventory process.  All parts per the sheet list were in the boxes and even though the box came in upside down, the parts were in good shape.  It is hard to believe with all the red paint arrows and "this side up" labels the trucking companies can't get it right.  At least the boxes are well packaged by Van's and saved the day.

There are a lot of ribs in the 14 wings, all of them look very well made and the flanges were very square. some edge finishing, fluting and priming and they are good to go.
