Wing strut assembly

Today’s mission was to install 4 AN3-16a bolts and 4 tensile nuts and washers. This mounts the lift strut to the front spar, the rear spar has 2 smaller bolts but as the rear spar is a long flat extrusion those took 5 minutes. The front spar is a hollow “D” shape and I had to insert 2 bolts and 2 washer+nuts from the inside. The wrench was taped to a screwdriver and was easy to fit when the boroscope was on, getting the hardware in was way more fun, magnet did the job after some fumbling.
