q Cut away the covering material from over the predrilled holes in the wing-
screw doubler.
q Place the wing-screw doubler onto the top of the wing and align the predrilled
holes in the wing-screw doubler with the predrilled holes in the wing.
q While holding the wing-screw doubler in place, draw an outline around it
onto the wing.
q Cut away the covering material from inside the outline you drew, then
glue the wing-screw doubler to the wing.
STEP 2: MOUNTING THE WING
q Apply a couple of drops of thin C/A into each threaded wing-screw mounting
hole in the fuselage and allow the C/A to fully cure before proceeding.
IMPORTANT The C/A will soak into the plywood, strengthening the
threads. Do not omit this procedure.
q Place the wing into the wing saddle, push it forward completely, then push
the trailing edge down into place.
q Align the holes in the wing with the threaded holes in the wing mounting
block inside the fuselage.
q Secure the wing into place, using two wing mounting screws.

Don't overtighten the screws. You don't want to crush the wing or break
the screws off.
