9. When you are satisfied with the fit, use 30-minute

epoxy to secure the wing bolt block in place in the fuse
doublers and F-4.

1. Sand the bump off of the die-cut 1/8" ply belly pan

sides as shown in the sketch.

2. Glue the die-cut 1/8" ply belly pan sides and belly

pan front former perpendicular to the belly pan bottom.

3. Drill a 13/64" hole through each of the die-cut 1/8" ply

wing bolt plates at the punch marks.

4. Test fit and then glue the die-cut 1/8" ply aft belly pan

former and the wing bolt plates in position. Note: The wing
bolt plates must be mounted right-side up. If the wing bolt
plates are inserted right-side up, the aft edges of the two
bolt plates will be in line with one another as shown in the
photo. If they are angled forward, they are installed upside-down.

5. Using the aft belly pan former and belly pan sides as

a guide, sand the trailing edge of the belly pan bottom flush
as shown in the photo. Sand the trailing edge of the belly
pan sides flush with the belly pan bottom.

1. Sand the entire wing saddle area lightly until the fuse

side doublers and fuse sides are flush.

2. Test fit the wing on the fuse. Center the wing side-to-

side, leaving equal space between the fuse sides and the
wing at the leading edge.

3. While holding the wing firmly in place and using the

pre-drilled holes in F-3 as guides, drill one 1/4" hole
through the wing joiner. Remove the wing from the fuse.

4. Cut the 1/4" x 3" long dowel into two 1/4" x 1-1/2" long

wing dowels. Slightly round both ends of each wing dowel.
Using 6-minute epoxy, glue one dowel in place in the wing,
leaving approximately 7/8" protruding from the front of the
wing joiner. Allow ample time for the epoxy to cure
completely.
