Just like the ailerons, the flaps seem to go together very quickly. The plans seem to go into a great deal of detail on simple items, at least they should be simple by this point in the build process. It’s not a bad thing, just weird to go through about 4 pages of the plans in a 2 1/2 hour period when other stages take much longer on just one page. At the rate I’m going, I should be back in the priming process soon… oh the joy!

Note: If you look closely in the 3rd picture, you’ll see my dog, Catfish. Occasionally he likes to check up on my progress… and beg for a treat :-)
