Covered Flaps and Ailerons Photos please

[Utah-Jay]

I am in need of some direction for covering flaps and ailerons, any photos you guys have would be great. I am mainly interested in seeing the areas around the pockets and how you worked the fabric and such

Thanks in advance

You can just cover around the pockets as if they weren't there (cover them right over), let the glue dry, then cut the fabric to the corners of the pockets and fold them in and and glue it down. It is nice and easy. You won't see that work anyway, once finished, due to aileron and flap pocket covers. If you are using Polyfiber then you can use a 225* iron to smooth any bumps at the corners. Do that before applying tapes.

These images should give you an idea of what I mean, you can see Wifey doing one of the flaps here, with the middle pocket cut and glued into place, she's just drawing the cut lines onto the other two pockets before cutting. Always finishing the cuts with pinking shears obviously.
