11. Bond 1/16” balsa former F12 to fuselage as illustrated. Next, key 1/16” balsa part F13 to underside of fuselage
atop F12, and spanning fuselage sides, and former F3. Make certain that F13 fits flush with fuselage sides, and
then tack glue former into position at all tab and notch locations.
12. Before we seal up the aft portion of the fuselage, we have some important business to attend to. First, install
the 1/32” balsa cross-grain doublers F10 within the fuselage assembly, flush with former F3 and F14, as
illustrated in the first photo. Now move aft within the fuselage, and install 1/16” plywood former SR3 to each
side of the assembly (within the fuselage), as illustrated in the second photo below.
13. Complete the mid section of the aft fuselage assembly by first installing the 1/16” plywood formers F4 and F5 as
illustrated below. Next, key the 1/16” balsa former F9 to the top of the fuselage assembly spanning formers F3,
F4, F5, F6 and fuselage sides, as illustrated below.
14. Final glue all fuselage parts. For the most part we have been utilizing thin CA glue to hold parts in position
while we complete the fuselage assembly. At this point it’s time to finalize the fuselage by re-visiting every
surface to surface joint with thin CA glue making certain that all parts are securely bonded. Hold you fuselage
flat against your building surface while bonding to ensure that it remains straight.
