Finished left aileron [9.5 hours]

By | | Ailerons

I finished the left aileron. Uneventfully. Did a trial fit to the left wing, it lined up perfectly with the flap! It’s good to complete all the external surfaces for the left wing, the end is still a fair way off for the wings but it is at least now in sight…
