Note last two lines of page three:- 'a change of contour to match the aileron washout......., correction here, it is of course washout, I worded this wrongly.  The notes emphasise more strongly than I have previously tried to describe how aileron geometry tied in with tip geometry.
Cheers for now, AL.

I see what you are talking about now Al. It really is a rather glaring error. Once you see it it's hard to "unsee it"  :(

Well it gives us something to do, eh?

Bruno: "How many rules are there?"

Willi: "I don't know... none of zem have ever been written down."

Glad it has been seen, it was driving me crackers!,
Here's a view of the upper wing which was originally posted on the 'other' site.  Note how the lighting on the left wing tip shows the taper from two ribs out from the aileron root.  It's also possible to see the aileron T/E 'change' towards the tip.  The kit is the 1/72 Roden DIII.  Also incorporated were correction to aerofoil section using Idflieg 'Baubeschreibung' and capture report co-ordinates and slight rib position correction, all this as previously described. Another pic to follow,
Cheers, AL.
