Brian, looks like the stiffener has been bonded to the wrong side if the marked
line. EUROPA might (should ) be able to sort this out. 
Dear old Nev would have cut it off and re bonded in the correct position but if
EUROPA cannot help, Andy Draper at LAA HQ will know the way to proceed.

stiffener on the underside of the Port wing closure panel does not line up
with the rebates in the ribs, causing the skin to sit too high and preventing
a bond to the ribs, see spanwise photo. What have others done who have been
through this issue?
