Bob,

(I'm not a mechanic and I don't even play one on the Internet.)

Jan makes an EXCELLENT and critical point. That slight indentation to
the underside of the leading edge is certainly supposed to be there.
I've heard of people who metalized the wings and didn't get that shape
right. I don't know if it's possible to get it wrong on fabric wings.

When my right wing was replaced, I walked around and around it before
the first flight looking for any differences in angle of attack and saw
none. I'm pretty sure (I'd say absolutely but I'm pretty ignorant so I
try to avoid that word) that you should see NO differences between the
wings. If you can see it, it's WAY off!

Please let us know what you find out.
