I Agree with your assessment, suspecting now the problem may in fact be the "rib" profile as opposed to the Spar which was pretty straight forward dimension wise, although conflicting info as to orientation.
In order to interpolate the curve through coordinate points, I had to choose a radius for the trailing edge to come off tangentially, I think I may have gone wrong there. Still, it looks like I may still have a fit problem anyway??,..will have to see in several days at my next opportunity.
Thanks John!

you will never want to to notch the rib cap strips, nor will you want to notch the spar. It all has to fit.
Look up and down the wing stations for more clues to the problem. Check other sources

Sid,
You're confirming for me that little nagging voice that says,.."that aint right!"
Will be looking for those other clues!
Thanks Sid!
