Another quick update.  I promised a Sunday update, here it is 1145pm as I furiously type away.

​Outboard top skin, now in place including the skin stiffener L's:

Another productive week in the shop.  I've updated the completed features graphic, but it's deceiving.  Only the upper surface of the left wing is done, this pic makes it look like both wings are done.  Notice the left wing is missing the trailing edge and root nose skin.  Details keenly captured by MS Paint.  LOL

​More to come, stay tuned :)
