Aileron fabric covering

Continued work on covering the ailerons with fabric.  Applied adhesive and then attached fabric to cover the top and bottom sides of the ailerons, then shrunk the fabric with irons as usual.  Also, similar to the flaps, we used extra material at the ends of the ailerons to cover the ends of the ailerons.  We also cut out some doily shapes using lightweight pre-shrunk fabric which will provide extra protection around the hinges and control horn.  Hours: 5
