Default Can this be corrected??

I noticed after "remeasuring again" a difference of 5/8" distance ( longer ) from the right elevator to the main wing. Since the elevators ( independant ) and the vertical stab are epoxyed in place I dont know how, if at all , to correct. I see only 3 options .

Please advise.

SeaGull Super Decathlon 40 w/.91Saito

1. try to remove the glued in tail section and reinstall

2. off set the main wing slightly to make both wing tips equal in distance from each other.

3. leave it as is and hope it tracks ok ( the control surfaces of the elevators , typical Decath, lots of surface area )

Anyone corrected a mistake like this before? Please give me a builders recommendation.

Thanks!! Bill
