pinched during assembly.
Connect strut to the wing. Install two aerodynamic covers on the strut and then insert pin connecting the
strut to the fuselage.
Secure all pins using self-locking nuts
Install strut fitting covers and fix them using adhesive tape
Connect tank breathing and fuel take-off hoses (and fuel gauge hoses, if used)
Repeat the procedure at the other wing
Connect the aileron control cable turnbuckles, adjust tension of cables and central position of ailerons.
Secure turnbuckles using a drop of paint and safety wire.
