Check out the chapter where the bulkhead is installed. You'll see were the
advice in other replies in the forum matches the instructions.
But . .I know I am thankful every day that I have not put the top on at the
point in the instructions where it directs to do so. Use the mod posted on the
support site to put off putting on the top. So many things are easier without
it on. You can use flow chart in the manual to see all the work you can do
without having the top on, in addition to the much that is more easily done
without the top on. Then, when you do put the top on, have the wings mounted
with all pins in place, verify that all is level - which you've done
periodically anyway(?):-) - so that the bonding of the top supports the wing
position.
