I'm about to close out the winglets on a IVP. The upright portion of the
winglets are held by a fixture at the correct incidence angle. I had to
twist the trailing edge of one about 3/4" closer to the fuselage centerline,
and the leading edge of the other 3/4" closer to the centerline to achieve
the correct incidence. The question I have is whether they will hold the
correct angle once they are closed out. I know they're supposed to, but
there's the instruction manual, and then there's the real world. Is there a
chance that they will twist back somewhat after they are closed and released
from the fixture? In my case if they do, I will have an equal error in
opposite directions. Has anyone had any experience with this?
