Very nice. I cannot enlarge any of my photos to show the wing details
this clearly.
These wings remind me of the model airplanes where the wing fabric was
made by floating a few drops of clear dope on a pool of water, resulting in a
film that was just a few molecules thick. The enthusiasts who pursued that
form of construction were very dedicated artisans.
