Section 7
Mounting the Wing to the Fuselage
Step 9 photo
Step 8. With the radiator scoop properly positioned, use a
pencil to trace the outline onto the wing. Use only enough
pressure to make a slight indentation in the covering. Use a
sharp hobby knife to cut away the covering 1/16" inside the line
you just made.
Step 9. Remove the wing and place a piece of wax paper or
plastic wrap on the wing saddle where the radiator scoop con-
tacts the fuselage. Remount the wing. Mix at least 1/2 ounce of
6-minute epoxy and coat both the radiator scoop and the wing.
Align the radiator scoop with the fuselage and the bare wood
exposed in Step 9. Secure the scoop in place using masking
tape and wipe away any excess epoxy with rubbing alcohol and
paper towels.

Step 10. Once the epoxy has cured remove the wing and use a
1/4" piece of fuel tubing over the mounting bolts to keep them
from falling out.
