Once the leading edges are sheeted, the wing panels are joined. Again, the provided jigs will ensure proper alignment. When you have the center section sheeted top and bottom and the aileron torque rods installed, the solid trailing edge stock ailerons are trimmed to length and prepared for the torque rod installation. The fuselage structure is all lite ply, with some parts having to be laminated to provide appropriate thickness. Where additional strength is needed, doublers are provided.
Construction is started by gluing the doublers in place on the full-length fuselage sides.
The assembly continues by pinning these sides and the formers, upside down, over the plans. Be very careful to spot the panels correctly over the plans, as the side thrust for the engine is provided by the difference in the length of the side panels. You will also notice that up-thrust is built into the side panels too. By following the manual's construction sequence, all the holes, doublers, and blind nuts will be in place on the formers when you are ready to actually assemble the fuselage. When the structural side, top and bottom panels, and the formers have all been glued in place, the wing is mated to the fuselage.
