FLIGHT SURFACES. DESCRIPTION The flaps are mounted to the trailing edge of each wing between the inboard end of the ailerons and the fuselage. The ailerons are located near the wing tips and hinge to the aileron spar to become part of the trailing edge of the wing. The RH aileron includes an aileron trim tab used for roll trim adjustment. The ailerons and flaps are made from aluminum. Aileron gap seals are located between the aileron and the wing trailing edge to increase aileron efficiency at high speeds and turbulent conditions. Serials 000 thru 7: Flap rub strips are located along the length of the flaps at the wing trailing edge to protect flap and wing surfaces from chafing one another. All Page

(c) Ensure knife edge supports and balance arm assembly are parallel to workbench top. (d) Remove aileron. (Refer to ) Note: The chord line is defined as the line extending from the trailing edge through the hinge line. It is perpendicular to the spar. (e) (f) (g) (h) Mark the chord line on the inboard rib shear web. Place aileron assembly on knife edge supports. Determine if a static imbalance exists. The aileron is balanced if aileron chord line mark is parallel to balance arm. A static overbalance exists if aileron is leading edge heavy. A static underbalance exists if aileron is trailing edge heavy. Determine the amount of static imbalance. Note: Ensure paper cup hangs centered and vertical with no contact with aileron. All Attach paper cup to one end of string. For static underbalance condition, attach string to leading edge of aileron. For static overbalance condition, attach string to trailing edge of aileron. Add mounting hardware to paper cup. Add lead washers to cup until aileron chord line mark is parallel to balance arm. Page
(i) Calculate the aileron static balance. In overbalance conditions, the static balance (M) is defined as M = D W. In underbalance conditions, the static balance (M) is defined as M = D W - where D = distance perpendicular from hinge line to center of gravity (C.G.) of added mass, W = weight required to balance the aileron. Note: The value of M is positive for overbalance conditions and negative for underbalance conditions. Static balance must be within +.0 in-lb overbalance and 0.0 in-lb underbalance. Assuming a deviation of ±0. in-lb exists due to measurement error, calculated static balance must therefore fall within 0. -. in-lb overbalance and 0.0 in-lb underbalance. Measure distance perpendicular from hinge line to C.G. of added mass in paper cup. Weigh string, cup, and contents with a calibrated scale. Using obtained measurements, solve formula to determine aileron static balance. Verify static balance is within 0. -. in-lb overbalance and 0.0 in-lb underbalance. Example: Assume an aileron is underbalanced. If balance is achieved by adding 0.06 pounds,.7 inches forward of the hingeline, the aileron static balance is: W = 0.06 pound D =.7 inches M = (0.06.7) - = -0. in-lb In the example, -0. in-lb exceeds the tolerance for a static underbalance condition. To obtain aileron balance, 0. in-lb must be added forward of the hingeline. The balance must be rechecked to ensure static balance tolerance is not exceeded. CAUTION: Do not exceed a maximum mass balance weight of.0 pounds (0.8 kg) at each mounting location. Do not exceed a maximum of four washers per bolt or nut. Always place steel washer next to nut. (j) Add or remove weight as necessary to balance the aileron. An underbalanced condition is corrected by adding lead washers under the bolts securing the outboard and inboard mass balances. An overbalance condition is corrected by removing small amounts of material from the outboard and inboard lead mass balance in equal quantities. Typically this is done by drilling or other means. (k) Tighten mass balance bolts to 0 - in-lb (. -.8 Nm). (l) Install aileron. (Refer to ) Page All
In overbalance conditions, the static balance (M) = D x W. In underbalance conditions, the static balance (M) = D x W x -. D = Distance perpendicular from hinge line to center of gravity of added mass. W = Weight required to balance the aileron. D 6 W SECTION A HINGE LINE SECTION A CHORD LINE 6 D NOTE Add mounting hardware and lead washers to cup until chord line is parallel to balance arm. Add lead washers to mass balance attachment hardware to correct underbalance condition. Remove mass balance material to correct overbalance condition. LEGEND. Aileron. Knife Edge Support.

(a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) Ensure both fuel tanks contain equal amounts of fuel. After airplane is in flight in smooth air, set throttle to full power. Trim airplane to achieve 60 knots indicated air speed (KIAS). Input full aileron trim left while holding wings level and let go of control yoke. Observe and note amount of time required until a 0 bank has been achieved. Input full aileron trim right while holding wings level and let go of control yoke. Observe and note amount of time required until a 0 bank has been achieved. Note: The amount of time required to achieve a 0 LH bank and a 0 RH bank should be approximately equal. If airplane rolls left too quickly, bend trailing edge of aileron trim tab down. Support trim tab at the bend when adjusting to ensure trim tab does not bend at the rivets and pull away from wing. Do not bend trailing edge of aileron trim tab up more than or down more than 0. (h) If required, bend aileron trim tab in small increments (approximately ) and repeat maintenance check flight.
