Click on one of the links (http://www.acpropulsion.com/ ACP_PDFs/ACP_SoLong_Solar_UAV_2005-06-05.pdf) and get a good look at the wing cross section.

We don't need the solar cells and all, just a little reinforcement for winch launches. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Bill --- It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life. B.
