So, aileron flutter is the moving of the aileron? Not the wings flapping?

Any surface and structure flexible enough to oscillate, will flutter within turbulent airstream.
It is not possible for any aileron to be shaken to destruction and not to transfer some of that shaking to the wing to which it is attached.
A rigid flag will not flutter in the wing.


I have not seen a plane flutter but if I do witness one and inspect the plane, would there be significant play between the servo and aileron (somewhere in the linkage)?

You will see surfaces of two airplanes fluttering here:
