Yeap, Wing has been removed from the building board this morning, and I built the aileron. If you haven't built the aileron yet, ensure that once you place the aileron core in and glue the ends, that before you glue the middle area into place ,look down the trailing edge and ensure it looks straight. I say this because, once i got everything glued in place the aileron trailing edge has a little bit of a bow in it. I've been able to get it out, and covering will take care of the rest, but I'll diffinately keep and eye on the right wing aileron while I'm glueing it. I decided to completed the entire left wing before starting on the right one, mainly because I'm really tired of the left wing. As for the pink-it tape, I've seen that before. Unfortunaly I'm using 21st Century Fabric, and the guy's machine won't but that fabric due to thickness. However I've been talking with a couple of guys, and they have said to order a pair of hobby scissors (I've got the Part Number) and they say you can cut it with them. It'll add about 16 pinks to the inch, which looks about right on the wing. I'll just have to ensure I've had plenty of coffee prior to making my cuts nice and straight.
