| More rigging today. Wires of decreasing diameter. This side's rigging is still not complete. Two rear "drag" wires are need. I had enough "Fun" for today. |

| Ailerons on the right side, starboard side, or off side are stitched and mounted. They must be connected. Red star added. I should have "starred" before I stitched!!! Options now... remove stitching and reinstall or install star around stitching. If I can match the red in the star, I can over paint the stitching....if not , the stars stay as they are. |

| Listed as the "Starboard" flying wires on the official Sopwith plan. I guess the Sopwith was more formal in direction than the USAF!! |

| Flying wires are double and pass thru the tip of the middle wing. On this model they are structural and really lock the wings. |

| Flying wires. The factory chart lists their diameter..little over an inch. More like a rod. Similar diameter on the LG and cabane wire. |
