iirc the first test of metal ailerons were done on a spit2 in early 41.
not that is particularly relevant, but Jeffrey Quill first tested a spit in Nov 1940 with metal ailerons and then flew it to Tangmere, where it was also flown by the commander of 602 squadron Sandy Johnstone.

afterwards a crash program was initiated to fit all front line spits with these ailerons.
