WM #62 F7A from Highliners Kit - Side Panels

Install Side-Panels

The next step is to install the side panels.  Be sure to check photos of your prototype before selecting the side panels.  The F7A that I am modeling uses the side panels with the horizontal louvers

Dry-fit the panels in place, chamfering the bottom edges if necessary. Glue in place through capillary action in the holes on the inside with plastruct plastic cement.  Repeat for both sides.
