Fabbing the right aileron
I have been working on the right aileron for the past several days. I have gotten the gas tank done and have counter-sunk the screw heads. I had to pull the tank back off since I did not like the fit of the tank skin to the top skin. There were several spots that stuck up a little. I have since massaged those areas and will be fitting the tank back onto the wing, hopefully, for the last time. I have also riveted the stiffeners to the aileron skin and have to make a jig before I can drill the skeleton to the skin. I hope to have all this done here in the next day or two and then I can start the process of mounting it to the wing with the hinge brackets. After that I can fit all of the gap seals and brackets and then mount the flap. I can't wait until I am done making all of the control surfaces.
