I don't have experience with liquid nails on planes, but I do have experience with liquid nails failing all over the place on a job site. I don't think it will stand up to vibrations and fuel. Why not 30 min epoxy?

I believe that the fuel will soften the liquid nails. Use epoxy and be done with it. It will certainly add more strength and be fuel proof. Liquid nails will remain somewhat pliable.

good for around the house kinda of stuff.

What the others have said. Use epoxy. Use 30 minute epoxy and not the 5 minute type.

Liquid Nails is essentially contact cement in a tube. A great product for hanging mirrors and paneling, but not an adhesive for modeling

I just tore down a structure that was built with Liquid Nail and was able to scrape ( chip ) the old glue off with my pocket knife. I wouldn't trust it on a plane as far as you can throw my car. As the rest have said : use EPOXY. ENJOY !!! RED
