Did some mistakes on the front spar of the HS. Three of the holes connecting the spar and HS-410 were too close to the edge (1-2 mm max). Also two of the holes for the rib was drilled in the wrong positions resulting in edge problem. Although not neccesary according to more experienced people than me (including Van's), I decided to re-do the front spar. I am now waiting for new parts.
The priming problem has come back. It turns out that Zinc Chromate is not a legal substance anymore due to toxic reasons, and therefore is nowhere to get hold of. Right now etch primer from a local shop specializing in aluminium constructions is something to be investigated.
The storage room to be used for priming is painted white to get it as light as possible.
