Under each Photo is a note of what is incorrect.
This is as opened and you can see there are no rivets in the rib where it meets the
aileron and the rivet spacing in the top and bottom of the skin is incorrect (missing rivets).
Also not the nuts might be bottomed out and one more washer is needed.
As a result of this I believe it caused flexing in the aileron and caused it to bend at the
trailing edge and now this aileron has to be replaced.
Here you can see the reinforcement is installed incorrectly... This should be forward and
also attached to the hinge and angle to keep the skin from bending. This is absolutely
useless and if you look it was once drilled correctly and was in the correct location.
Her
Same as above
This one I feel is the most critical and was installed again too far aft and as a result
the new paint is cracked at the joint from flexing.
This is the new aileron that will be installed. I offered these to Sabrina when she was
needing some but she ended up doing something else so now it will have a new
home on this bird. I have been storing these for 4 years now..... anyone need a right aileron??
