[f-AA] Wing questions

[Ian Harvie]

Thanks Cy, my 7-439 came from Safe Air, yeah about 8 ft long. Doesn't 
have section I-I though. Looks like there are a few versions. Also the 
leading edge stiffener is referred to as P/N 1-10000 but is 5-173L and 
5-174R in the Chief manual.
Oh well, variety adds spice to life, doesn't it.
Also the 1-2327 filler on the tip end of the spar, it says 2 off. Is 
that one on the main spar and one on the rear spar? What do they do?
Will have to make some up. Do you have a drawing of these?
