While stabbing the wings on our "never ending" project we discovered a major malfunction on our right wing spar where it stabs into the fuse. It appears that during the original construction of the spar, someone took it upon their self to grind a piece off of two of the lower leaf sections that make up the lower portion of the spar thus compromising the critical bolt edge distance. We contacted Vans and they said plain and simply "not airworthy"
Now, what is the best approach to replacing the spar and salvaging the wing? Who has had to take a wing back apart. And no, we are not in a position to buy a new wing kit. The engine overhaul made sure of that.
