    Default False rib problem

    The 7SS kit I acquired had been in storage for several years. It has the quick build wings. When I was inspecting the wings, a number of the false ribs literally fell off in my hand when I touched them. I have several questions for the group:

    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Any ideas on what may cause this type of problem?
    Any suggestions on how to repair(other than just hysolling them back on)?

    I have attached a couple of pictures of the ribs. They came off very clean with no apparent damage to the ribs or the structure they were attached to.

    Any suggestions and/or advice would be appreciated.
