[NSRCA-discussion] Aileron lead holes

[Mark Atwood]

Hey Verne,

I've just always set a long ruler on edge on the top of the wing and held my
brass tube parallel to it..maybe 1/2" below the edge of the ruler...which
then keeps you a 1/2" below the surface of the wing.  Simple, easy, accurate
(for our purposes) and neat.

-Mark
