Re-insert the stab and trial fit the vertical fin into its slot in the rear of the
fuselage. Make sure the tab on the bottom of the fin fits into the slot on the stab
and that the trailing edge of the fin is flush with the rear of the fuselage. Once
satisfied with the fit, use a felt tipped marker to mark the fin where the covering
will need to be removed. Remove the vertical fin from the fuselage and use a #11
blade to remove the covering from the vertical fin where it will mate to the
fuselage to insure a good wood to wood bond.

Insert the carbon fiber wing tube into the fiberglass sleeve in the fuselage and
slide both wings onto the tube and into the slots on each side of the fuselage.
Make sure the root rib of the wing is flush against the inner fuselage structure.
13.
Re-insert the stab and fin into their respective slots and measure to make sure they
are properly aligned. Also compare the horizontal stab to the wing and insure that
they are parallel. When satisfied with the alignment, glue these surfaces in place
with CA.
