Refabrication of wing and control surfaces:

Fabrication of rib and spar components:

The previously constructed wing structure did not have any ribs
and the spar components where rusted and damaged. The material we have
chosen for the Fabrication of ribs and spars is a GI sheet of 1.5mm thickness.
The sheet is cut into strips of 6 ft length and 1 inch breadth. At first the spar
components are welded to the structure using the arc welding process. After
attaching the spars the rib components are welded over them. The finishing is
furnished by using rough file and smooth file.
Attachment of skin to the structure:
After the fabrication of structural components to the wing
the skin is riveted over the frame to give a definite structure and shear support
to the frame.
Fabrication of control surfaces:
The control surfaces except rudder were not fabricated. Hence
we had to fabricate the ailerons and the flaps and the elevator
