Systems and methods are provided for assembly line (100) processing of aircraft wing panels (150). The method includes inputting wing panels (150) into an assembly line (100), the assembly line (100) having a number of work stations (120), the wing panels (150) oriented such that leading edges (155) are all on a first side (166) of the work stations (120), and trailing edges (157) are all on a second side (165) of the work stations (120), and advancing the wing panels (150) in a process direction (181) through the number of work stations (120), at least a first portion of the work stations (120) dedicated to wing panel leading edge (155) processing, and a second portion of the work stations (120) dedicated to wing panel trailing edge (157) processing.
