Brief Description:  Assemble left Aileron

Started the day by backriveting the stiffeners to the skin. Then pop-riveted the nose ribs to the counterbalance pipe and then cleco'd that to the nose skin. About that time Bill came by again. We continued assembly as per the plans riveting the spar to the nose ribs, then adding the trailing skin and riveting the top skins to the spar. Then adding the end ribs, bolting on the aileron brackets and then finishing up riveting and pop-riveting the bottom, until we had a completed aileron. Left Aileron done, right aileron and two flaps to go.
