Hi,


I am about to start gluing ribs to my lower wing spars. Also, I shall have to isntall the butt fittingsin the Spar. These holes are somehow prone to elongation as I have read. Also, I have read about gluing those fittings to the spar in addition to the fout plans bolts to avoid elongations in those holes.


As I have no experience on this subject, before going with it, I would like ho hear oyour opinions


Thanks in advance


Manuel Benito
