Starboard Slats Assembly

Slat positioned in jig for clecoing underside skin
Somewhat warmer today so I'm back on slat construction. Clecoed (copper) exterior ribs with slat mounts onto the starboard-outboard skin panel. Strapped assembly to jig and positioned/clecoed (silver) skin top to the slat ribs. Slight crease at leading edge of center rib. Unstrapped and worked the crease out with rubber mallet. Looks good. Re-strapped; alignment was perfect. Strapping into jig to insures slat airfoil by adding the trailing edge (7S1-5).
