8.3 Attaching the Wings to the Fuselage
Note this is a temporary fitting, before removal for covering and transportation.
However, it should be performed in order to allow easy setting up of the controls.
a) Select the front and rear lift struts SKR92 and SKR91 .
b) Lay them on the ground next to the fuselage in the position that they would
attach.
The inboard ends are those fitted with the angled stainless-steel
brackets.
The strut with the angle cut out of its trailing edge is the front strut.
c) Attach the struts to the main undercarriage cross-beam, SKR9 .
The plastic washers between the strut ends and the main beam shown
in Figure 146 are not required.
Figure 146 lift strut attachments.
d) With two people, attach the wing to the fuselage.
One person should hold the tip up while the other person puts the pins
through the U-brackets to secure the leading and trailing edges on the
fuselage.
Put the leading edge pin in first, from the rear, then the trailing edge
pin, from the front.
e) Lift the struts up to the wing and attach them to the leading and trailing edges,
Figure 146
Do not install the jury struts at this stage, wait until the wing has been
covered and the geometry checked. This will happen at a later stage.
Do not overtighten the upper bolts holding the lift struts to the wings,
there is no need to distort the connecting brackets.
Check that the lower strut attachments lie nice and flat against the TU9
tube. If not carefully bend them until they do.
