some gaps between the wing root and the main body Super glue and stretched sprue to fill the gap this should do the trick

well you are up for a ride
The engine cover don't fit well at all and there are some other fitting issues that you have to take your time like the wing tips and the air intakes at the wing root they don't sit well at all over all is a ok kit but not fun to build
