x 7/8" x 28" balsa trailing edge sheeting
(SKY6W20). This must be done on an absolutely
flat surface or the wing will not end up straight.
Apply thick CA to one of the TE'S (except on the
tapered part past B6), and press a trailing edge
sheet in place. Line up the root end of the sheeting
with the center joint of the trailing edges Hold the
sheeting in place until the glue cures NOTE: The
edge of the TE sheet may not be exactly straight,
but just position the sheet so it slightly overlaps
past the TE, and any overlap can be sanded off
flush with the TE later.
NOTE; It will be helpful to have the
following items handy for the next steps
. . . thin CA, thick (slow cure) CA, a
straight piece of wood such as an
aileron, and a wet cloth.
D 17 Hold the LE sheeting tightly against the LE
at a slight angle so it rests on the LE of the ribs.
The root end of the sheeting should be lined up
with the LE joint at the wing centerline. Use thin
CA to glue the sheeting to the LE only. Do not glue
it to the ribs or spars yet.
D 13. Now apply a drop of thin CA to each rib
where the TE sheeting contacts it. Be careful not to
get any glue in the B5 rib slots.
D 18. Tilt the wing up, with the LE down, and
apply a drop or two of thick (slow curing) CA to
each rib Hold the wing at an angle so the glue will
flow down and coat the edge of each rib Apply a
line of glue to the front half of the spar (except
where the spar bends at the wing tip) Be very
careful not to get glue in the I-strut slots!
D 14. Install the trailing edge sheeting on the
opposite wing panel Butt the root end of this side
against the TE sheeting already installed.
D 15. Before applying the leading edge sheeting
in the next steps, use your T-bar to lightly sand off
the edges of the shear webs, and smoothly blend
the ribs to the spar. Also, clean up the LE/rib joints
to remove any excess glue.
D 16. Trial fit one of the 1/16" x 2-1/8" x 28" balsa
bottom wing LE sheets (SKY6W22) in place on the
top of one wing panel Trim or sand the front edge of
the sheet if necessary to make it fit nicely against the
LE. Do not cut it to the correct length yet.
D 19. Immediately place the wing on your flat
work surface, and use a piece of wood (an aileron
