Finally back in the shop after a week of travel that left me back in town at the airport with a car that would not start... turns out that the fuel pump was dead.
With a loaner car from the dealer, I ended a short saturday to pick up the Subaru... mighty once more!
At the shop I worked on the skin join scarf joint, not needed yet but I was just a bit curious how it would work out... then moved on to the leading edges.
I built a jig to assist in assembling the leading edge and fuel tanks...although the skin is pre-bent the bend is not fully formed and the skins are very close fitting to the ribs... getting it all pulled together without a jig might be possible with a couple of extra arms...
