wing saddle
 
(PT-40MKII)
For the first time I placed the completed wing on the wing fuselage saddle it is not level. If I push down on the LE the TE is off the saddle 1/8” if I push down on the TE the LE lifts up a 1/8” it rocks back and forth. I have some 1/8” saddle foam tape will this fix it or am I screwed. maybe I could put tape on the foward half or the rear half of the saddle?

Is this a kit or the ARF? If it is the kit I would sand it to fit the shape. Ensure the wing is true first then match the saddle to fit the wing better. Then use the saddle foam to fill the 1/16 inch or less inperfections.

If you are bolting the wing on...Page 38 "Construction Note" states the wing sits off the saddle, to allow for the sealing tape.
