WingNut/Harry - great find and thanks. I am not ready to sprinkle the salt and pepper on the hat, not just yet. Substantial repair on a wing can really mean anything. I had the pleasure of watching the Boeing field repair rebuild a technically scrapped B742F in Hong Kong and the job I am told, would not have been attempted without securing the aircraft in a hangar, levelled and secured. This was done in about 40 days and did not require any wing work so to attempt a substantial wing repair in the open, and keep it from prying eyes, still raises my interest. I guess some Google searching required.

Thanks of course, Terry
