The frustrating thing is that they all look just fine but the wing
will still refuse to go in. I have tried (due to frustration) to wiggle
wing fore and aft and up and down but that never helps at all


Install the right wing, use a support a little inboard of the middle of the
right wing (near the wings CG). When you install the left wing stand at the
leading edge, and have a helper at the trailing edge. Support the wings
weight while you slide it in (use your right hand ). If everything is
aligned but it still doesnīt move, tilt the fuselage on its dolly very
slightly (like a rocking motion) with your left hand to make it go together.
A VERY slight, hardly noticeable back and forth motion on the left wingtip
can help, too.

Once you and your helpers have some training, it isnīt harder to assemble
than any other glider.
