FUSELAGE

INLETS

Remove 1/4'' of the seam joint on the top and bottom of
both inlets as shown. This allows the inlet extension to
slip over the inlets. Make sure to scuff all gluing surfaces
in the fuselage and on the inlets.
Fit the inlets to the fuselage. If necessary, use some #80
grit sand paper on a small block to adjust the aft edge of
the inlet lip on the fuselage.
Once the inlets have been trial fit, apply a bead of slow
ZAP to glue the inlets to the fuselage one at a time.
Make sure the inlet is tight up against the fuselage
before adding kicker.

Assembly & Operation Manual
Remove the paint on the overlapping flange of each
inlet. A small diameter drum sander works well.
Trial fit the inlet extension over the inlets, some additional
sanding on the circumference of the inlets may be needed;
the extension should be a snug fit.
