In tidying up the Fly Baby I’ve come across this:

Only one rib is like that on one wing. I can only assume that something happened during construction and this was the fix, but it’s floppy and I don’t like it. Both caps have this cut, like the rib was made in two pieces. Again, only this one rib out of however many a Fly Baby has.
