Wing status

Work has started on the wings from P2-MFU. Good news is that both are in very clean condition with no corrosion, Cessna certainly splashed the green paint around in those days. The LH wings will require only minimal work with some skins, leading edges etc, with the worst damage in the RH wing, which will require front and back outer spars, ribs and skins etc. All in all, great news for my budget.

The flap tracks are going to be replaced as well and dual 450w retractable lights added to the outboard section. Will post some pic's of the internals asap.

These are the wings when collected in 2010 including a spare set from 185-0100
