Section 4: Bolting the Wing to the Fuselage

Step 5. With the wing centered check the alignment by measur-

ing from each wing tip to the rear of the fuselage. Be sure to use

the same point on each wing tip exactly the same distance on

each side from the center of the wing. Refer to the figure below.

Step 6. With the wing centered and aligned to the fuselage,

mark the wing exactly in line with the sides of the fuselage.

Step 7. Remove the wing from the fuselage. You will use the

wing bolts installed through the bottom of the wing bolt blind

nuts to mark the location for the wing on the fuselage. In the

fuselage, locate the wing bolt block with the preinstalled blind

nuts. Partially thread the wing bolts through the blind nuts from

the bottom up until the wing bolts are just slightly above the

wing saddle.

Step 8. Carefully install the wing back onto the fuselage without

touching the wing bolts.

Step 9. With the leading edge dowels of the wing installed in

the fuselage, hold the trailing edge just above the upside down

wing bolts in the fuselage. Hold the trailing edge over the bolts,

aligning the center of the wing over the marks you previously

made on the wing. Carefully lower the trailing edge of the wing

until it contacts the wing bolts. Gently press down on the trail-

ing edge, to make indents on the bottom of the wing, marking

where to drill for the wing bolts.

Step 10. Remove the wing and the wing bolts from the fuse-

lage. Note the indents on the bottom of the wing.
