After quite a few interruptions ( life getting in the way ), more progress on the wing began to take place in succeeding installations: My use of 1/64th ply on all trailing edges allows me to obtain a sharp but straight trailing edge without being fragile. It's all worth the added effort.

91: Ply edge epoxied in place on the pre-beveled underside edge w/ edge set hammer-pinned in place.
92: Ailerons cut free from the wing & placed upside down for ply edging and pinning.
93: Aileron bottom sheet in place w/ pinning edge hammered down. ( Note the kerfs in the outer edge of the hardwood pin-strip to better follow the outboard curve of the aileron.)
94: Both flap pieces cut to shape. ( 1/64th ply outer side and 1/16th balsa for inner .)
95: 30 min. epoxy applied to inside face of 1/64th ply w/ serrated credit card to evenly distribute the epoxy. Balsa side was added & both flaps placed under plate glass with a decent
amount of weight added to keep it dead flat while the epoxy dried overnight. ( More pics & text to follow.)
