Hello,
I want to install my ailerons but I have a few interferences:
The shophead of the rivet on the aileron-hingebracket contacts the aileron-steelbracket if I mount it as vans say it on the plans. Interesting is also that vans says to have the flushside outboard and the shophead inboard, but if I look at the space available, then it should be the other way around? But the riveting is already done.
The AN960-10 washer is as thick as the rivethead so the gap is nearly nothing! Vans says two normal and an light washer on the outboardside and only one on the inboard side.
How can i solve this? Turn over the rivets .. but the hole is already contersunk, doing a double countersunk rivet?Upgrade to an AN5?
Im a bit concerned about the marginal gap here, also on the inboardbracket where the big washer is only 0.1mm away from the aileron-hingebracket.
Thanks alot,
regards, Dominik
