Thanks for the wing rib. If you want to see it again you will have to
come to the museum!

No problemo. It made it in one piece?

I picked one that must have been from in front of an aileron, cuz it didn't
come to a really sharp point at the end. While this didn't look as cool as
the bigger ribs, I figured it had a better chance of actually arriving
intact...

Whatcha gonna do with it?

I'm not sure what it looked like when it left. It's in one piece but a bit
crooked. The size is good, if it was bigger I'd have some trouble hauling it
around. I'm using it on a Discovery Station to show folks (kids mostly) what
airplanes are made of on the inside and to show progression of aircraft
construction over time. I'm hoping to have a wood rib, metal and I already
have a flap off some huge commercial thing with honeycomb aluminum (have a box
size piece for the kids to stand on too!.
