Wing Continued
23. Fit one of the leading edge sheets W14 to the
TOP
of the leading edge W11.
The edge of the sheet should fit flush against W11, and the ends line up with
ribs W9. W14 will only contact the extreme front of each rib. Bond W14 to
W11 only, from inside of wing assembly, with medium CA. Allow glue to
cure.
24. Carefully bend W14 over the
TOP
of the ribs. Bond W14 to the
UPPER
spar. Repeat this process to install the remaining W14 to the
BOTTOM
of
the leading edge, ribs and spar.
Tip: Moisten the outside surface of W14 with glass cleaner and allow it to
soak in for a minute or two. This will make W14 more flexible and easier to
bend. Bend into position and allow to dry prior to bonding.
25. Use a sharp knife to remove the tabs from the
BOTTOM
of each rib.
26. Use a sharp knife to remove the central section knock-out of rib W1 marked
“Remove”.
27. Fit and bond the large
BOTTOM
sheeting W15 to the
BOTTOM
of the wing.
The opening in W15 should line up directly over the etched area on W6.
Bond with thin CA. Sand the trailing edge of W15 to flow smoothly into the
trailing edge W3. do the same for W13 on
TOP
of the wing.
28. Lightly sand the leading wing, rounding the leading edge and leaving the
trailing edge square. Check the fit of the wing in the fuselage to ensure that
the leading edge is rounded correctly. DO NOT BOND WING WITHIN
FUSELAGE AT THIS TIME.
Set the wing aside until the Final Assembly.
