Hi John,

Don't worry! There are more problems with the language trying to explain it than the actual work involved!

The hinge points are easy, even on the ailerons. Drill a small pilot hole (1/16 will do) in the right position, (very slightly below the edge, so that the covering is still undisturbed)then enlarge it with the 1/8 drill necessary for the hinge. The hinges don't have to be straight when the aileron is straight, so you can angle them down to be in the meatiest part of the wood.

The wing joiner...

It says in the instructions to make a balsa or ply spacer to bolt to the wing joiner so that when you slide them into each wing half, the wings are the right distance apart so that the fuselage fits between them. Make sure, that the length of this spacer is the width of the fuselage at it's widest point (the top of the hole the joiner goes through) and not the bottom of the hole, as the fuselage tapers down a bit. You can see this if you look at the square hole each side of the fuselage.

You discard the spacer after gluing.

Erm, I'm not sure if that was obvious either!

Come back if you are still confused. I will try to show it with pics.
