Can someone please confirm for me that I have the flush-head rivets here on the right side of the mounting bracket (my brackets weren't pre-assembled like most others I've seen)? The plans say that the flush heads go on the outboard side, but it doesn't make sense to me, since it also looks like the plans have you mount the aileron pushed almost all the way outboard with a washer between the powder-coated bracket and the mounting bracket. This doesn't make any sense since it seems that the shop head of the AN426AD4 rivets would create an interference issue.
Does someone have more detailed pictures of the attachment here? Why do they have you put the flush head on the outboard side? Am I missing something here?
(note that I haven't done any shimming or anything yet...I've just thown the aileron on the wing temporarily.)
Thanks,
Jamie
