Rib stitching with Henry Riege - Covering Ailerons April 14th

Henry Riege from Oak Hammock Air Park led a rib stitching workshop at the RAA building with about 15 participants. He used the lower right Tiger Moth wing for demonstration and a piece of cardboard substituted for the fabric so we could more easily see the stitching system. Bob Stewart, Gil Bourrier, John, George Inman, and Henry Riege (lft-rht). April 14th we plan on covering the ailerons, drop by if you'd like to help.

 Holes for stitches are pre-punched and aligned so thread between the ribs is vertical.

 Tightening the knot.
