Testing Rib Jig for March 8th RAA-CAHS-Brandon CATP MuseumWorkshop




Gil Bourrier prepared two jigs to create a duplicate Tiger Moth rib. On March 8th, Brandon RAA, Winnipeg RAA, CAHS, and Brandon CATP Museum are meeting at Lyncrest Airport, RAA Workshop Building to take a look at the Tiger Moth Restoration project and actually make a few Tiger Moth ribs. These ribs will be sold at the Brandon CATP Museum.

Cap strip repairs on the lower left wing have slowly been fitted, steamed, dried to curved silhouette, glued and clamped into position.

Volunteers include builders and neighbours who drop in when they have a couple of hours to help, let the Restoration Team know if you'd like to volunteer too.
