Installing aileron on right wing

I had carefully cut wing templates and somehow used them but felt that it was not bringing the alignment to perfection. Before drilling the holes in the aileron bracket, I used a plumb bob to see the cord alignment and insure the cord was dead on 58 1/8". I used a hole locator to mark the bracket. I am very please with it. 


After that I placed the flap and had to trim up the bottom skin by 1/4". I spent so much time aligning and ready to drill that I ran out of time so I will go at it when fresh tomorrow morning.
