My experience to kill aileron flutter:
A-Immediately reduce power to idle.
B-Pull back hard on the stick to help kill air speed.
C-Try to load the ailerons with left or right stick.
Now...depending on how rapid and violent the aileron flutter, you may not be
able to accomplish B and C. Why? If the ailerons are fluttering violently,
so is the control stick. The stick will be wiping out the cockpit laterally
from lock to lock, or from thigh to thigh. You probably will not be able to
grab it until you get slowed down a bit.
Kolb pilots should always be aware of what their airplanes are doing.
Despite the draggy nature of Kolbs, they accelerate quite rapidly when the
nose is dropped with power.
Install aileron counter balance weights and you will not have to remember A,
B, or C.
