Like the title says, I prepped and primed all the rear spar parts. I was just going to let them dry, but I decided to stay up late to watch the NASA Curiosity rover land live. As I had a few hours to burn waiting for this, I got everything cleco’d in place and started riveting.
BTW: Congratulations to NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratories on an amazing mission! The descent they pulled off was nothing short of amazing, and even reminded me a little of Rube Goldberg! You guys are rockstars, and deserve all the budget dollars you want!
