If this is your first wing half, set it aside and begin
building the left half of the wing.
MAKE SURE YOU WORK OVER THE LEFT WING
PORTION OF THE PLAN. DO ONLY STEPS 1
THROUGH 5 AND 10 THROUGH 19 FOR THE LEFT
INBOARD PANEL.
When both halves are complete to this point, con-
tinue with Step 20.
12
Fold the sheeting back down over the ribs and
hold in place until dry.
Apply a bead of glue to the L.E./sheeting joint,
in the areas between the tape. Allow to dry.
HINT: Using Jet Set™ accelerant speeds this (and
many other) gluing processes.
When the joint is firm, remove the tape and
apply glue to the remaining unglued areas of
the joint.
Lift the sheeting, as shown, and apply Super
Jet™ along the top of each rib where it will
contact the sheeting.
19.
Set the outboard L.E. sheeting in place, align-
ing the inboard edge of the sheet with the joint
between rib #6 and the #6a doubler. When
correctly positioned, tape the sheeting to the
L.E.
20.
Trim off excess spar material extending beyond
the #15 ribs (wing tip ribs)
21.
Glue trip strip to the #15 ribs, as shown.
Carve and sand balsa tri-strips, so that they
match the top contour of the wing tip ribs.
22.
Still working over the plan, pin down the left
inboard panel.
Slide the right inboard panel up tight next to the
left inboard panel, engaging the joiners with the
spars, as shown above.
23.
Raise up the right inboard panel, supporting it
with the dihedral gauges at the outermost rib
#5 position.
IMPORTANT!
The ends stamped “B” must be up.
