1. Mark the wing joiner and the wing panels so the

joiner can easily be positioned consistently during the

joining of the wings.

2. Slide the wing joiner into the wing panel. Use a pencil

to mark the joiner against the wing. The joiner should fit

snug in the wing. If it does not fit, lightly sand the joiner

until it does fit nicely.

3. Slide the joiner into the opposite wing panel. It should

slide in to slightly hide the line drawn in the previous

step. If not, lightly sand the ends of the joiner until it fits

equally into both wing panels.
