Hello, all
Did anybody bother to bend plate 6V11-4 to fit the curvature of the wing?
I see small gaps at the front and rear, something around 1.0 mm ... see attached file...

Yes, I bent that plate. I supported the ends on a couple of pieces of wood and bumped the middle (carefully) with a wood block and hammer. Mine fits the contour perfectly.
I also bevelled the edges and put a generous radius on the corners.

I didn't bother, I figured the amount of A5 rivets in there would suck it tight, and I was right. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt either way though. Good luck and keep trucking along. I agree 100 percent with taking your time to round those corners good and beveling, its smart structurally and that plate is pretty visible, so make it look right.

Yes Carlos,
I had to bump the plate into a nearly imperceptible curve to get a fit.
