Default RE: Click here if you're afraid of kits

A little progress...

The manual calls to install "shear webs" on the aft edge of the spars... which I didn't understand so I hope this is what they meant

a quick word, i dunno about your kit, the instructions or what it calls for but check for this-

most kits i've dealt with that had "shear webs" the instructions say they must be "securely glued to the wing ribs at both ends"

here's a link to what i'm talking about...
