This is for Mike... or anyone..
I'm at a loss here. Not quite sure exactly where parts A4, A5, A9 & A10 is suppose to be glued and positioned.
Step 16. See red circle of position.
Is it suppose to be under in the slot or on the edges?
Its not clear how they're suppose to be positioned; or am I missing something?

Those parts look to be the trailing edge of the flaps

That's what I had originally thought. Thank you for image clarification. It now makes sense. Thank you.

Ok, those parts go on top between the flaps and wings.

Great progress Tom. As much as I love the F-18 I've never done one. I have two in the stash and will do at least one next year.
