Great Planes Spirit 100 Sailplane Kit - GPMA0550 - Manual (Page 19)

D D 22. Drill a 1/16" hole in each 1/16" Die-Cut Ply Spoiler
Horn (SPT1W11) at the indentation. Cut a 1/16" wide slot in the
spoiler for the spoiler horn using a razor saw (a hack saw blade
will also work fine), and glue the horn in place. It should be flush
with the top surface of the spoiler as shown on the plans. This
completes the assembly of the spoilers until after the wing is
covered.
D D 24. Cut the sheeting off at an angle from the front of
W2BS to approx. 1/4" out from the rear of W1BS as shown on the
plans. Sand the sheeting flush with the W1BS rib at the wing root.
(The photo for this step is at the bottom of the last column)
D 25. Now go back to page 9 and assemble the other wing
panel.
D 26. Trial fit the two wing halves together using the wing
joiner. Sand the root of each panel, if needed, to achieve a nice
close joint between the two wings. If there are large gaps, fill
them with scrap balsa or filler. Glue the 1/16" Balsa Wing Root
Caps with an "S" (SPT1W21) to the root of each panel.
DD 23. C u t a 4" and a 5" piece of l/16" balsa sheeting to sheet
the top inboard center section out to rib W2BS, as shown in the
photo. Med. or thick CA should be used for this step. Glue the
5" piece near the spars, and cut the 4" piece to fit between the first
piece and the trailing edge. D 27. Make sure you can see the pinpoint punch on the top of
a 1/16" Ply Rear Wing Bolt Plate (SPT1W11). If not, stick a pin
through the punch mark. Sand the "outside" top edges of the rear
wing bolt plate to a taper as shown in the photo. Glue each one
in place so the rear is flush with the back of the TE and the side
is flush with the root cap. Sand the inside edge to match the
dihedral angle of the root cap.
D 28. This completes the SPORT wing assembly so skip to
page 34 to FUSELAGE ASSEMBLY.
