FUSELAGE PROCEDURE
1. Position and glue two hardwood mounting blocks
securely inside the fuselage as shown using Epoxy or
Super Jet. Glue them well, these glue joints must be
strong.
2. Drill a 1/4" diameter hole through former "B". Locate
hole by holding drill up against bottom edge of cabin top
doubler and then drill through former at a slight angle so
hole matches downwards slant of dowel.
3. Cut and glue two centering filler blocks under windshield
top former as shown, allowing center clearance for
dowel.
4. Position wing on fuselage and press T.E. down to rest
on fuselage top. Measure for equal distance from wing
tips to rear end of model and adjust wing so it is setting
square on fuselage. Hold wing in place with tape.
Measure 2" from wing TE. and 1/2" in from fuselage
sides. Drill two holes 13/64" diameter down through
wing and fuselage mounting blocks.
Remove wing. Enlarge WING HOLES ONLY to 1/4"
dia.
Cut threads in FUSELAGE HOLES with 1/4-20 tap.
FINAL FITTING. After applying optional foam wing seat-
ing tape the wing may not fit in place. To correct this, file
dowel hole slightly higher (towards fuse top) using a rat-
tail file. Continue until wing fits flat on top of fuselage.
