Attaching the wings
14.1 Attaching the wings to the fuselage
The wings are attached to the fuselage as follows:
Step 1
Bring the wing main strut into a correct position to the wing by
means of attaching the auxiliary struts in the receptacles on the
front and rear wing spar.
Step 2
Grip the main strut and raise the wing tip. Keeping the wing in a
vertical position, carry the wing forward at 90° to the fuselage.
Step 3
Turn the wing into a horizontal position, keeping the wing tip
slightly higher than the wing root.
Step 4
Slowly push the wing against fuselage and wing spar brackets.
Step 5
Before pushing against the spar brackets, look for the slideway at
the rear spar intake so that to lead the rear wing spar in the locking
position. When the retaining bolt is touched, rotate the right wing
slightly clockwise (the left wing must be rotated counter-
clockwise).
By moving slightly upwards, the rear wing spar will lock into the retaining bolt
and the front wing spar will take position under the retaining bolt of the front
wing tube holder.
Push the front wing spar against the bracket while slightly lowering the wing
tip. The front wing spar will lock into the retaining bolt. At the same time,
launch the lower end of the wing support in the square cross-frame.
Carefully check that both wing spars have properly locked into place.
