'I noticed on the line art drawing I have the outboard ribs are
illustrated with wash-in vs wash-out. The Bill Effinger plans do not
show wash-in. Most plansets illustrate a minimum amout of wash-out as it
is helpful to offset the onset of a stall. When I saw the wash-in
illustrated I was surprised... Can anyone take a moment to comment on
the accuracy of what is illustrated below... Thanks in advance for your
valuable contribution to my project.

'It is 4:30 am for me, so I may not understand exactly what you are saying, but the wings on my 24 are, for the most part, the originals and new ones, are flat as a pancake. If there is any wash In/out, it wasn't apparent to me.
I built the new wings and stayed was close to the original as I could. When I was done, I put everything back on the fuselage, even with the struts virtually un-touched (re: Length), you can guess it. F L A T. The Cub that I did, you could see the wash out, but the 24.....I see none, either direction.

'Bob:

Thanks for the input. Below you can see why I asked. There is supposed to be another technical drawing aka multi-view line art out there which would of course become the definitive reference : ) However without it I am left in a 'tween state until that is overcome. Upon receipt of the other drawing I would smurge the two into a single document for presentation purposes with a copy of the Belgian owners declaration relative to his airframe. At 1/3rd scale this is something that will be viewable from the vantage point of static judges sitting 15 feet from the wingtip when fuselage side faces them.

Thanks,

Ed

'When I rebuilt my wings I made sure they were flat, that is the way they came off, and they fly great with no wash in or out.
