R8, and between R9 and R10 on both wing halves.

16. Sand the TE of the wing square.

17. Glue the two 3/32" x 9/16" x 24" balsa TE caps in place.

18. Cut the ends of the TE caps off flush with the sides

of the wing tip.

19. Sand the TE caps flush with the TE sheeting.

root of the LE flush with the sub ribs. Sand the tips flush
