Many of the listed above items are at 50-75% completion due to the fact that the sub-component(s) they are attached to are not completed as of yet, i.e., the wing must be completed with the aileron attach points in order for the aileron to be fitted and completed, and then the trim tab to be fitted and completed.  Sorta like an erector set for all of us old enough to remember what one of those was.
