As Modelius say, there is trouble in area. Simply, no fit in shape and position.But there is solution of course. Before start to work on this, please get away from you any Axe, hammer or similar 'smart' but strong tools. First I have do is take pliers and bent both side, streak side and wing side, to match position. Then some sanding (really minor), to dry set streak in place. When position was more or less proper, I glue one side and must keep it with two clamp and it will stay like that few hours. Then I need to bent upward other side and glue it in position and keep it overnight. So next work will be tomorrow...

I lived in Yuma, Arizona in the late 1980s and the Marine Corps Air Station was just a few miles from where I worked. The home unit was equipped with Harriers and so I often got to see and hear them flying. Really a loud machine but fun to watch!
