Hmm, your technique is probably better, but at the same time, I would probably mess it up and am going to stick to the manual's instructions of putting thin CA onto the hinge showing in the gap....I got the gap smaller than thr 1/16" prior, and was able to get the glue in...of course I got a couple smears on the wing, alas I have no CA debonder of which the instructions speak...Anyway, I think I did it okay, no problem like the last wing pair I did with the aileron sticking out past the Wing tip. Thanks for your help.
