| I also repaired the wing bolt hole by adding a paper tube like is used on the MM Hellcat. I had intended to do this from the start, but got ahead of myself when covering the wing. |

| My simple fix; an epoxy and plywood sandwich. Tape was used to keep the epoxy from leaking out the bottom while a clamp help the sandwich till the epoxy set up. While not what I would do if I was still in the building phase, I think it will do the trick. |
