Assembling the Wheel Pants and Landing Gear
1.
You will need to glue the wheel pants pieces together. Below is a photo of all the
pieces in the order that they are assembled. One side is assembled right to left, the
other side is assembled left to right. The 1/16” ply is inserted into the second 1/16”
balsa sheet.
2.
The parts can be glued with thick CA or wood glue. Try to get them reasonably well
aligned.
