Wing Skin

AlphaSierra

I'm New Here
The trailing edge of my left wing came out great after riveting it to the rear spar. However after I clecoed the flap brace and aileron gap fairing to the rear spar the wing skin has pulled down almost 3/16" from where the wing skin is at the flap brace. Anybody have any suggestions on how to keep the trailing edge in alignment?
 
I don't remember having any issues there. If it were me I would likely trust the pre-punch parts and adjust the inboard skin to match. I could see how the skin might be slightly bowed out/up depeding on the the angle of the rear spar flange prior to adding the braces. I have a few pics near the bottom of this page in case they help: http://home.comcast.net/~jmjula/wings.htm
