17. Using a finger, locate the two wing dowel holes below the wing seating on each side of the fuselage side. Cut away and remove
the covering material at these points and insert the two wing dowels through the holes. Measure the dowels to ensure they are
protruding an equal amount and apply a small amount of medium cyanoacrylate to secure them.

through and remove the covering
material from the fin and tailplane slots
at the rear of the fuselage.
18.1 Carefully cut through and remove the 18.2 Repeat for the tailplane slot
covering at the fin slot position
19. Assemble the wing centrally to the fuselage and secure it using two wing elastic bands. Trial fit the tailplane by sliding it fully in
place into the tailplane slot. Align it to the fuselage by checking the measurements shown the diagram. Using the wings as a
reference, check that it sits perpendicular to the fuselage by viewing from the rear.
