Paul: let me know if you get this OK.

I don't think I made that one. Looks like a symmetrical airfoil.

All my wings were unsymmetrical as I recall.

I don't recall making a Formula A wing movable.

I think I would have supplied nose wings as well.

Could be a counterfeit :)

I could be wrong. We built a lot of wings in those days.

Got a receipt? :)

Here are a couple of pictures with the stock Formula A wings I built for
Carl Haas.

Paul: it was you all right.  Age must be taking its toll......  You even
brought it with you to DC to install.  Like I said, take credit for a
nifty piece that worked like a charm.  I'll look in my file for the
invoice.

Best regards,

Wow! I don't remember that at all. What neighborhood did you live in?
I lived near DC (Arlington) up until 1964. Went to GWU. BTW I still own land near Gettysburg. Want to buy 7.5 acres cheap? :)  Half assessed value.

I could not imagine I could afford a trip to DC from California at that time.
My wife's family lived in NY state just north of NY city so perhaps it
was during a trip to visit her family but I doubt it. We were rather
poor. My wife cried as we were nearing Midland TX in the old car for my
new job at Chaparral :) She liked California a lot better :)

Do you recall the exact year?
