Not really. I don't recall building that. Of course it was about 50 years ago. Most
of my wings had streamline tubing struts and those look like round tube. Also what is
that thing on top near the trailing edge? It also looks adjustable
or movable with some sort of throttle cable arrangement. Perhaps your mechanic
fabricated some or all of it. I am sure, as director of the Peace Core at the time,
you had no time to make race car parts. I am guessing :)

Is it still in the Smithsonian? Perhaps next time I am in D.C. I can get a look at it
with your permission. Last time I was in the Smithsonian I looked for it but did not
see it. Perhaps it is down in the basement someplace. The second picture is the only
wing I recall making for a Form B. Most were built for Formula A or Formula 5000. Ron
Grable on here drove one of them.

Was your wing fiberglass or aluminum? Most of my later wings were aluminum such as
the Chris Amon 612 Can Am Ferrari wing. Last 2 pictures.
