The wing has components comprising at least a front spar (26) a rear spar (29), wing ribs and stiffened upper and lower aerodynamic profile-defining skin panels 30 (13) (20) (21) (22) (23) and the method includes the steps of forming a first sub-assembly (11) including the front spar (26), front wing rib portions (30) and front upper and lower skin panels (23) (22), forming a second sub-assembly (12) including the rear spar (29), rear wing rib portions (31) and rear upper and lower skin panels (20) (21) and mating together front and rear wing rib portions (30) (31) and upper and lower skin panels (13) (20) (21) (22) (23) 20 respectively of the first and second sub-assemblies (11) (12) to form the wing (48). The lower mid skin panel (13) goes on last so that there is ready access to the wing interior prior to this last step. <IMAGE> |
