First of all, my order from SafeAir1 came today!  That was REALLY quick shipping!  Here's what comes in the pitot-static kit-all the fittings, static ports for the fuselage, and the nylon tubing for plumbing the system.

This evening I touched up a few spots on the ribs that didn't quite get covered.  Then I installed a wider piece of angle at the end rib that should allow me to put the skin on without notching the support angle.

The other end was clamped into place with a small C clamp and a piece of wood to protect the spar bar, and a piece of paper underneath the spar where it rests on the angle.

Then I cleco'd the main ribs in place.  This is as far as I could go tonight since Brit is not here, and my dad won't come over this late.  So, it'll have to wait til tomorrow, I hope...
