  • Wing Rib

    Due to a mistake on my part, I am in immediate need to a wing rib for my F21. It is the outer rib. The last one before the wing tip. Any help with a source would be appreciated.

      Is it the same as the regular post war rib at the tip? I have some. Post a photo of the damaged one and I will check the parts pile for a match.

        I have a set of uncovered BC12-D wings here. If they are correct and the same as a F21, then the flange goes to the tip. Left wing Left flange, Right wing Right flange.

          I will double check but the damage is to the left wing so I believe it is left flange. The damage is behind the rear spar. Missed the aileron. How has on for sale.

              Need a photo (preferably with something for scale like a yard stick next to it). I have several but need to know which one.

                It is the smaller full rib that closes out the aileron and tip bow attaches to

                  As viewed from the back (trailing edge), that is different to my BC12D. Port wing underside:

                    Yes Robert, that is the correct rib. The picture shows the right wing, flange right from the rear. I need the end rib for the left wing, flange left from the rear.

                      OK. Now that the rib is identified, I need to buy one right know. I can repair the damaged one but I would rather replace it. Who has one that they will sell me?
