Hey all.

It seems universal that the aileron pushrod routing from the aileron bellcrank to the attachment hardware at the aileron in a sport biplane is generally below the wing spar. I'm a little jealous seeing that some of the metal kits are able to keep the linkage internal by passing the pushrod thru the wingspar.

Do any sport biplanes with a wooden wing route the aileron pushrod thru the spar?

The only thing i've seen similar is a photo of a falco flap mechanism.
