The student then reported the right wingtip went down and the aircraft became airborne. At the end of the flight, the student and instructor noticed the damage to the right wingtip. The right aileron sustained scraped bottom skin approximately 2" x 2". Not initially reported to FSDO. Discovered while investigating another incident.
