Wing Construction
Locate and join together over plan sheet parts
W1a and W1b to create the wing center
section sheeting.
Next, locate parts W2a and W2b. Join
together so that the etching on the frame is
on the same side. Build a right and left frame.
Begin building by laying the wing frame flat
atop your work table (
text/etch marks up)
.
The ribs will be inverted when assembled to
the wing frame. Locate and install R2 to the
wing panel by aligning a front most tab and
notch. Glue.
Install ribs R3, R4, and R5 aligning first at
notch point and etch lines in leading edge of
wing frame. Glue ribs at leading edge.
Lay the wing down atop a flat surface with the
portion of the wing forward of the spar taped
flat against the surface. Wrap the wing panel
aft into position at trailing edge tab and notch
points. Align ribs to etch lines and glue.
Install S2 and S3 spars to right and left wing
panels within notches at wing frame and ribs
R2, R3, R4, and R5.
