Model Tech P-47 Thunderbolt Instructions For Final Assembly page 13

Set the fuselage upside down securely in your airplane stand.
Place the wing into the wing saddle and push the trailing edge down firmly into place.
Double-check that the tab in the leading edge of the wing fully engages the precut slot in the forward bulkhead. You
may have to push the wing forward firmly to get it to fit properly in the wing saddle.
Carefully align the centerline of the wing (the center joint) with the vertical centerline you drew on the back of the
wing saddle.
Use a couple of pieces of masking tape to hold the wing firmly in place and aligned.
It's important that the wing not move during the next few procedures.

Using a ruler and a pencil, measure out 1-1/2" from each
side of the wing centerline (at the trailing edge) and draw a
mark on the plywood wing bolt doubler.
Using a ruler and a pencil, measure forward 1/2" from
the back edge of the wing bolt doubler (at the first marks you
drew) and draw two intersecting marks.
Where the marks intersect is the location of the wing
hold-down screws.
With the fuselage upside down, locate and draw a
vertical centerline on the back of the wing saddle.
