Finished First Bottom Skin

Here, I've finished riveting the left inboard bottom skin. There are four bottom skins. Feels good starting to wrap things up on the wing. It might be possible to do it solo but it was much easier having Austin help, especially around the wing walk doublers. The ribs at the wing walk doublers are very close together so it makes access difficult. They're called wing walk doublers because that's where you walk on the wing when you climb into the cockpit and both the ribs and skin are doubled. I also reinstalled the flap but will have to take it off again to finish riveting the flap hinge.
