Wing skin cut away to remove damaged areas. Unfortunately it reveals a delamination of the inner skin surface.

Wing outer skin and brown foam cut away further in an attempt to reach the ends of the delamination. The skin around the smaller area of damage has now been chamfered ready to receive the BID repair patch.

Having decided it's not good to keep chasing the ends of that delamination, the edges of the cutaway area have now been chamfered ready for patching. I will attempt to deal with the delaminated area by applying a BID patch from the inside of the wing, through the aileron bellcrank access hole.
