11.
Using no glue, set ribs #7, 9,12, and 15 in their
respective T.E. notches, hooking them over the
spars as you go.
Making sure the T.E. and the ribs are correctly
aligned over the plan, pin in place.
Glue the ribs to the spars and the T.E.
12.
Pin the outboard L.E. in place and glue it to the
ribs.
13.
One at a time, position and then glue the
remaining ribs # 8 through #14 in place. Let dry
thoroughly.
NOTE: IF YOU ARE CONSTRUCTING A ONE-
PIECE WING, CONTINUE AT STEP 14. IF YOU
WISH TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE WING TIP,
REFER TO THE FOLLOWING OPTIONAL
INSTRUCTIONS.
Remove the sheet from the wing and, using a
metal straight edge, carefully trim the sheeting
so that, when the piece is laid flat, it just fits
between the L.E. and the spar.
Following the same procedure, trim and fit two
more sheeting pieces for the bottom center
section.
Fit the first sheeting piece between the spars
and, holding it flat to the building board, Super
Jet the edges to the spars.
Install the other two sheeting pieces in the
same manner.
9.
Position ribs #2, 3, and 4, making sure to align
the rib fronts over the front guide lines on the
plan.
When satisfied with the alignment, glue to the
L.E., the bottom sheeting, the spars, and the
T.E.
10.
Pin the outboard main spar in place over the
plan. Then set the rear spar and the T.E. in
place.
IMPORTANT!
The outboard T.E. has no notch at one
end. This unnotched end must be at the polyhedral
joint, as shown.
