Brief Description:  Right Wing ribs/Aileron pondering

Trimmed layups, all look much better than I had even hoped.

Removed jigs, squared up trailing edge.

Marked up aileron cuts on bottom surface, both 90 degrees and BL edges (streamline). Still pondering.

Remember Bill Keehner's lovely Vari VH-IWF and its ailerons that follow the BL rather than 90 degrees. The mailing list says to do this on a Long/Cozy will cause binding. Can't think why that would be. Have seen Berkut ailerons cut this way at Oshkosh also. Ponder, ponder. [Timewarp: I did cut along the BL, and there is potential for binding, but not within the permitted aileron travel. Still may or may not be a good idea, but I've done it now. The reason the Cozy/Long is different is their ailerons are BIGGER!]
