Great Planes Super Skybolt 60 Kit - GPMA0170 - Manual (Page 39)

D 10. Tilt the wing up, with the LE down, and
apply a drop or two of thick (slow curing) CA to
each rib. Hold the wing at an angle so the glue will
flow down and coat the edge of each rib. Apply a
line of glue to the front half of the spar (except
where the spar bends at the wing tip).
D 14. Glue the LE sheeting to the center LE, the
center ribs and to each other.
D 11. Immediately place the wing on your flat
work surface and use a piece of wood (an aileron
works OK) to hold the sheeting in place while the
glue cures. It is important to keep the wing flat
during this process as the LE sheeting will "lock"
the wing together. We won't glue the sheeting to
the wing tip until later.
D 15. Position one of the 1/16" x 2-5/8" x 13-1/2"
balsa wing center sheets as shown in the photo
and mark where it intersects the LE sheeting. Also
mark the front center of the sheet.
D 12. Install the opposite wing panel top sheeting
following the same procedure. Allow the center
end of the sheeting to overlap the LE sheeting
already installed.
D 16. Cut the center sheet on the marks you just
made. Save the two triangles.
D 13. Trim the LE sheeting using a metal
straightedge just as you did with the TE sheeting.
D 17. Glue the wing center sheet in place against
the LE sheeting. Make sure the wing is flat during
this step.
