Working on the wings. The warping of the trailing edge of the lower wing worked. If you look at the edge it does not appear to be straight....it is.... the warping produces the illusion, the same as the old photos in my reference book. |

I am reticent to post this photo as all of you have seen photos similar to this, and have performed this task before. However this lower air foil must be different from any that I have fabricated in the past. All of my reference photos, and structural descriptions state the tailing edge of the lower foil is intentionally warped. Bowed, so to speak, in its center. Pondering a "bowing" procedure this evening. |
