Step 7a. Add Horizontal Fuselage 

Doubler

Moisten Main 
Assembly and 
apply glue to the 
Horizontal 
Fuselage Doubler. 
Tape in place

Note: All parts are 
keyed together 
and we will need to 
assemble the 
entire lower 
fuselage at this 
time. So have all 
parts ready to 
install. If you wait 
too long, foaming 
of glue may create 
obstructions in 
alignment slots.
