Note: Before you start to remove any fasteners, you may want to pay close attention to the way they are installed. Note how many washers are used for the attach screws. Note the washer arrangement and quantity utilized for the aileron hinges.

Aileron removal - Check for proper mounting hardware Bolts nuts washers etc. There are four top and four bottom screws and washers. NAS221-9 (screws) and AN960-10L (washers).  The removal of the previous attaching hardware, will allow the aileron to detach far enough for the access to the two grounding straps. There should be two, located near each of the two hinge brackets. You will need a phillips screw driver and small wrench (size ?) to remove the straps so that the aileron can be completely detached.

The inner aileron attach hinge will have the aileron control rod end attached to it. a AN4-10A (bolt), AN960-416 (washer), and AN365-428 nut.
