The diagonal ribs used in the newer gliders made by APCO are stitched to the center of the panels of the top surface. Unlike other ribs, the position to stitch these ribs has to be marked, which is done by punching small holes in the correct position.The small holes do not influence the gliders performance and are not mistakes, but necessary for the accurate manufacture of the glider.
