Thanks for the tutorial. I never heard any of this in 25 yrs of modeling. LOL I must have missed the part where I asked for building lessons. Too funny. You rock dude!!!!

LOL I usually cover my airplanes before flying and fuel never gets on the wood in the tail of the airplane and these days
If you keep them long enough then the fuel will eventually get under the covering and plenty gets on the tail.
and these days I would guess that CA is the most common glue used in building RC airplanes.
CA is not recommended for critical points where a strong fuel proof joint is required, such as the firewall and tail plane to fuse. Normally when plywood is used epoxy is recommended, however when the joint is balsa to balsa white glue is just as strong. Because of so many who are alergic to CA and epoxy and those who simply want to save money and see no need to hurry, white glue is probably as popular as CA.
