Aircraft; Procedure
On takeoff and climbout I noticed aileron feel to be inaccurate; and very heavy. Reviewed logbook further and found this to be a re-occurring issue. Coordinated with Dispatch and made a precautionary landing; to avoid crosswind conditions. Dispatch message said Maintenance would meet our flight. No mechanics met us. Switched aircraft and departed.
No additional information.
B757 flight crew reports very stiff aileron controls during climbout. A Logbook review back more than nine days; reveals the aircraft has a history of aileron write ups. The crew elects to divert to a suitable airport.
