The invention relates to a process of joining a wing to an aircraft fuselage comprising the steps of: mapping the wing root (11) of the wing (10), mapping the centre-wing-box (CWB) of the aircraft fuselage, determining the position to provide the hole pattern on the CWB, providing the holes on the CWB, and attaching the wing root (11) to the CWB. Primary and secondary templates with corresponding hole patterns may be used in combination with targets and laser trackers to implement the process. The hole pattern (17) of the wing root (11) can therefore be duplicated on the CWB at a position such that when the wings (10) are joined to the fuselage, the aircraft will have optimum flight performance and dynamic symmetry. The invention thereby provides a predictive fit, based on virtual representation and analysis, and advantageously permits the hole pattern (17) to be provided without requiring the CWB and wing root (11) to be brought together.
