Although I've been an aviation nut my whole life, I've never owned a plane and don't even have my private pilot's license (I passed the written a few years ago, but that has since expired). Well, after visiting the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville, Oregon, and seeing the Baby Great Lakes there, the bug in me was re-energized. I'm going to build one. This blog will detail the journey.

Second Wing Done!
Go to my aviation YouTube channel to see some videos about the process of building this wing. This wing went faster than the first one and turned out better. I guess you should expect to get better as you do things more. The blue spots all over the leading edge is body filler to fill in any dents or depressions, as the metal is very thin and virtually impossible (for me, at least) to end up with no dents. It looks kind of crazy in these photos, but the leading edge is very smooth and level.
