Goodday.

I built a trainer a few years ago well about 8 and am now employed and actually have cash in the bank and im planning on flying it next summer, My wing has a twist in it, i think its from covering it, can i use a heat gun/ iron to untwist it?

How perfect does it have to be?

thanks

Yes, try twisting it in the opposite direction while applying the heat gun.

If it's a trainer, AND it has ailerons, you can have a pretty good twist and still fly it.
