Brief Description:  More work on manual aileron trim system.

I almost finished the installation of the manual aileron trim system. It took me three tries to drill a hole in the shank of the AN-5A bolt. The first one was drilled too far down the shank, the second try was off centerline a bit but the third was just right. I used the black knob that came with my rear seat throttle kit (replaced with a Chris Welsh lever) to finish off the trim lever. This system seems to work well but it was very time consuming and a real pain to install with the side skins installed.
