The tip of the left wing leading edge was damaged after an incident in CW13. During rigging, using the rigging help provided by the club, the rigging help carriage was turned over due to a wind gust while the wing was moved from the trailer to the fuselage. The wing touched the ground and slided over the concrete which abraded the gel coat from the leading edge of the tip on a length of approximately 5cm.
The inspection of the damadge by a technician showed, that the plane is still flight worthy and that there is no immediate need to repair it. Nevertheless, the decission was taken to fix the damage.
A second issue was found on the right wing, which shows a small delamination on the trailing edge of the tip. Decission on the repair of this part is pending, as it also does not affect the flight worthiness of the plane.
The wings are now in Deelen in building 9. Several small damages on the leading edge of both wings are as well fixed in the frame of this activity. It is assumed that the work can be finished in CW15.
Lessons Learned:
Even if the rigging help was designed to be operated by one person alone, please make sure that there is always a second person at the other end of the wing while moving it from the trailer to the fuselage.
