Big screw up tonight. I was cutting the ailerons off of the wing and instead of cutting behind the rear spar I cut in front. Without even thinking I'd cut all the aileron ribs in the wrong place. I'm trying to decide on a fix or if I just want to rebuild the whole wing. I'm very upset with myself right now.

I'd do what Ace advised, to laminate some sub ribs to the cut area, making it all one piece again, then recut the ailerons off. If you laminated both sides it would be just as strong, if not more, as it was before the cut.
