The distance from the bolt to the hinge pin needs to be the same on both
ailerons so they deflect the same amount when installed. If one bolt has a
small tilt to it, are they really both the same distance to the hinge pin?

During the closeout, the bolt placement turned out
fine and the distance from the LE and hinge lip was
almost exact. However, when I left it for curing, I
had not noticed that the A2 plate was not exactly flat
on the foam. One end of A2 is about 2 mm proud of the
foam surface. I would not have noticed it except for
the fact that the side flanges were a little
transparent and you can see the A2 plate inside. I
suspect the bolt has a small tilt too, although I
can't see it with the eye. Any ideas what this is
going to do to the aileron alignment?
