Rib Stitching

[jim34285]

Beginning to plan recover on my BC12D.
There is a difference of opinion on whether 1945 wings were origionally rib-stitched. Can someone point me to a solution?

Mine used the Taylorcraft wires. It will be using them again.

The year of manufacture is irrelevant.
If they are built-up ribs (like a Cub) then they were stitched.
If they are stamped ribs, they were wired.

Hope this helps,
