I'm working on the left wing of my RV-6. When I drilled the outboard aileron bracket to the aileron, I somehow slipped up and it ended up misaligned; the top of it is tilted slightly inboard, enough to make it rub against the wing attach bracket when the aileron is moved. The top hole I drilled in the aileron bracket is about 1/2 of a bolt hole off (i.e., when the bracket is properly aligned, the edge of the hole in the bracket goes through the middle of the corresponding hole in the aileron).
The plans call for two bolts in the bracket. There's enough room to drill a hole in the middle for another bolt, and I presume I can do that. Anyone have any ideas on what to do about the misaligned hole? Is there another solution that isn't coming to mind? John
