Then slide control horn into slot in flap. Next, slide control horn on pin and push horn to inside edge of hole,
toward center of wing. Leave just enough clearance between horn and hole so the horn does not scrape edge of
hole.
Use some thin CA and drip glue into pin hole. When CA is dry, remove tape. Pull flap down and fill space
around control horn with CA.
