A cautionary tale for those builders who have not yet constructed the flaperons. Page 18-06 step 1 instructs us to "check that the inbd. & outbd. Flaperon skins are bent properly as in Figure 2." Mine were not, the V bend at the trailing edge needed closing up. I first tried squeezing the trailing edge between two pieces of flat timber 3 or 4 feet long; even with plenty of pressure this had no effect. My next move was to do as Step 1 also says: " work the skins by hand until they lie flat against the main ribs". This certainly closed the V in the skin up, but unfortunately on inspection after, I could see that my manual squeezing had produced a series of wriggly looking dents along the trailing edge, even though I don't think I have particularly strong hands. Disappointed, I moved on, & squeezed the other skins by hand between 2 pieces of smooth timber about 9 x4 inches with an old soft towel over the trailing edge, producing almost perfect results. Now I have one really nice flaperon & one not quite so nice. This may be one of the rare times when it pays to ignore the Vans instruction, or at least proceed with extreme care.... Cheers, DEAN...
