Rick,
        I'll give it a shot. Is your aileron TE sharp, or nearly so? If only nearly is the termination rounded? If not, is the termination perpendicular to the local free stream? Any of these can cause TE shedding problems. If you suspect, then grind the TE 45 degrees to the local free stream to a height of 1/16" or so. Leave the edges reasonably sharp.

        It works for boats, so I thought I'd pass it on.
