Wing Stand Deployment, 7 January 2012

Don and I spent maybe half an hour yesterday evening moving stuff out of the way and positioning the wing installation fixtures for a dry run with an actual Bearhawk wing.
We chickened out when we realized
(1) how heavy the wing is, with no longitudinal crossbracing installed yet;
(2) how high we would need to lift it;
(3) how little time we had.
We opted to delay the first wing lift until we add more bracing and come up with some kind of stable step arrangement.
