Looks great, doesn't it? Looks can be deceiving. I read the plans wrong and riveted the nose rib to rib # 2 instead of rib #3. It's not that I didn't read the plans, I read them several times, Incorrectly, I might add. I discovered my mistake when doing the initial fit on the leading edge skin. All is well now, but it's a sobering lesson.
