I clamped the flap and hinge into place. According to the plans I need to have a 1/4" gap between the flap and wing skins. When the trailing edge of the flap aligns with that of the aileron, about a 3/8" gap results. I doubt 1/8" is much of a big deal but I would like to understand why since all of this is pre-punched. When I follow the plans I get the unsightly misalignment shown in the fourth picture above.

I didn't do anything tonight, just went over everything to see where I screwed up. I couldn't find it. I'll look on the web to see if anyone else has had this problem.
