>>>Had play in my left inboard ailerorn hinge,, replaced the
0.088" pin with a 0.092" and hinge tight, but still had play. All
rod-end bearings and bolts were ok, but the "L" shaped bracket that attaches to
the aileron itself with two AN-3 bolts (they were tight) actually had been
pulled away from the aileron near the web of the bracket, about 0.010" or so.
The bracket was deformed, the push-pull tube action had literally pulled the
unsupported bracket away from the aileron . Am replacing both left and
right brackets with 1" steel angle iron....Don Skeele
