Delect the aileron and completely saturate
each hinge with thin C/A glue. he ailerons
front surface should lightly contact the wing
during this procedure. Ideally, when the
hinges are glued in place, a 1/64" gap or less
will be maintained throughout the lengh of
the aileron to the wing panel hinge line.
NOTE : he hinge is constructed of a spe-
cial material that allows the C/A to wick
or penetrate and distribute throughout
the hinge, securely bonding it to the wood
structure of the wing panel and aileron.

Turn the wing panel over and delect the
aileron in the opposite direction from the
opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each
hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates
into both the aileron and wing panel.
Using C/A remover/debonder and a paper
towel, remove any excess C/A glue that may
have accumulated on the wing or in the
aileron hinge area.
Repeat this process with the other wing
panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.
Ater both ailerons are securely hinged,
irmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to
make sure the hinges are securely glued and
cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully ap-
plying medium pressure, trying to separate
the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution
not to crush the wing structure.

Note : Work the aileron up and down sev-
eral times to "work in" the hinges
and check for proper movement.
