Manual Reference:  7-9
Brief Description:  Aileron gap fairing / hinge bracket

Minor milestone reached: the right wing is now off the table and in the cradle, ready for Jackie and I to make a start on rivetting the bottom skins on. Neither one of use is looking forward to that. Finally, after wrecking and replacing two of the three parts that make up the outboard aileron hinge bracket, I finally got it assembled and riveted to the spar and end rib. Then on with the aileron gap fairing. I decided the -3 rivets for the skin/fairing joint were too small so threw -3.5's in there instead; much better.
