2. Pin the 1/8" die-cut balsa aft fuse side (AFS) in

position over the plan. From the 1/8" x 3/8" x 30" balsa
sticks, fit and glue three longerons to fit between the
forward fuse and the aft fuse side.

3. From the 1/8" x 1/4" x 12" balsa stick, cut and glue

the side window frame to the forward center and forward
top fuselage sides.

4. Use a pen to mark the location of former F-5 on

the longerons.

5. Remove the fuselage side from the plans. Return to

step 1 and build the second fuselage side.

6. Place the two fuse sides together and check that they

match up all the way around. If they are not identical, pin
them together and use a sanding bar to make them match.

7. Lightly sand both sides of each fuselage side to remove

any excess glue.

8. Lay the fuse sides next to each other so they mirror

each other. Mark one fuse side left side and one right side.

9. Glue the die-cut 3/32" balsa wing saddle doublers to

the inside of both fuse sides. Align the top and front of the
doubler with the top and front of the fuse side.

10. Glue the die-cut 3/32" balsa lower fuse doublers to

the inside of both fuse sides. Align the bottom and front of
the doubler with the bottom and front of the fuse sides.
