What causes the buckling/oil canning on the bottom of the ailerons and the

That's just the way lightly-built non-sandwich composite skins age.
What's the fix?
I don't think it has shown itself to be a real problem in most cases.
JJ will probably correct me if I'm wrong, but in the absence of other
damage, they are probably structurally sound. And on these two-
seaters, the performance hit is negligible. So the best fix is
probably just to not look at them.
Thanks, Bob K.
