Fairing boxes

Post by mbetti » Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:42 am

Hi all,
During the fuselage build and making fairing boxes, they want you to mount the wing for a dimension. This would be a hassle at this point because I have the wings stored away and would also have to relocate the fuselage for more room to do this. I would like to finish the rest of the fuselage and then get it blocked up or on it's gear in the middle of the floor and do the wing mounting etc then. Has others done it this way? Can I put the fuselage on it's gear prior to wing mounting or is that not recommended?
Thanks for any input,
Mike Betti

Hi Mike: I ran into a similar situation and just made and mounted the
fairing boxes without attaching the wings. I think the trailing edge of the
flaperons was off by maybe 1/8" - no big deal in my book. Bob J Formerly
