.....
Now begin to trial fit the four main wing cores into position.
Be careful not to put too much pressure on the foam cores and damage
them. The two 4nboard cores will have to be beveled at BLOO by
sanding because of the main wing dihedral and the other core joints
may have to be sanded to make the cores fit within the maximum
tolerance of 1/16". The level lines on all cores must remain level at
all times. This is important, so take your time.
.....
Stand back and sight spanwise along the main wing to verify that
the main wing is straight, and is not bowed or kinked. Verify that
the leading edge is straight from each tip to BLOO, and that the
trailing edge is straight from tip to tip.
.....
Don't be concerned if the main wing core female jigging
templates need to be moved inboard or outboard to remove any bows or
kinks. Also, a long straight edge will help you looking for kinks and
joggles.
.....
When everything is perfect, mix up some bondo and carefully
bondo the main wing core female jigging templates to the table top in
the necessary locations. Next, rest the main wing foam cores on the
main wing core female jigging templates. Check the alignment and
individual level lines again. Then RECHECK the alignment and the
individual level lines. Then RE-RECHECK them again; get the message?
Stirring sticks, scrap wood, etc. can be used as shims to locate
everything properly.
.....
The next step is to join the foam cores together with micro
slurry after verifying that the core-fit is within 1/16". Check,
recheck, and re-recheck each core level line and alignment as the
cores are joined. Finally, attach the main wing foam cores to the
main wing core female jigging templates with small dabs of 5-MIN,
being careful not to move the cores after the final level line and
alignment check.
CAUTION
.....
The main wing foam cores must fit
within 1/16" or exotherm damage may
result.
TRIMMING THE MAIN WING FOAM
CORES
.....
When the main wing is attached to the fuselage, it must fit
between the FS78 bulkhead and the FS94 bulkhead. As can be seen from
the sketch, this requires that the forward "nose" of the main wing
cores be removed. You may wish to skip ahead and read the section on
MAIN WING MOUNTING to have a clear understanding how the mating is
accomplished.
.....
Go to your fuselage which is laying in the corner and sit in it.
This "cockpit time" will help give you confidence that you really can
build an aircraft. Don't forget to make airplane engine noises and
move the imaginary controls; it helps with the illusion.
.....
When you are tired of this, get out of the cockpit and measure
the distance on your aircraft from the aft face of the FS78 bulkhead
to the forward face of the FS94 bulkhead. Make these two measurements
at WL30, outboard at either fuselage side at the FS78 bulkhead. They
should be the same - about 16.3". since you are only human, they will
probably each be a little different, end either more, or less, than
