The treatment starts with a sharp knife for a bit of whitling.

A few big bits.

Then I used my plane to get a rough size, making sure not to go too far.

A bit more plane, I think.

That's close enough with 1/16" at the bottom and just not touching the top leaving it at 5/16"

Next, I held it in place on the TE for a close shave with the plane.

That will do nicely.

After a bit of sanding.

It's ready for the TE to be cut off (98 mm) and glued. Leaving the remainder for the aileron.

 

That's next then fit the hinges and finish the wing tips.
