Which set of plans are you working from? If you are building a II, IIL, or IILT, the the plans show the "B" wing. The "B" wing has LH and RH wing panels that are mirror images of each other, so you'd need 11 RH (rib flanges point to the right) and 11 LH (rib flanges point to the left) ribs. If you are building a IILS or IILTS, the plans show the "S" wing. The "S" wing panels are not mirror images of each other, and use all LH ribs (the rib flanges point to the left). So, you'd need 22 LH ribs.

Thanks Fred for clarifying that, yes I am building a stretch with the "s" wing, so all left is the go. Will order with confidence now!

Guzzi...your Sonerai "Bible" is still here. Follow this link. Scott made it available to us. Scott thank you again, get to OSH and get that blue homebuilders ribbon for your airplane.
