The PDF attachment is five 8.5x11 pages you can print on your printer. Be sure to turn off any page scaling. Check that the rib thickness is 8 inches at the 30% cord line. Cut drawings 2,3,4,5 on the left "copy #" line and then assemble on the horizontal line with a straight edge. Tape everything together and glue to a piece of 1/4 in ply. The ribs do not show the rear cusp of the ribs. The cusp is added when you add the trailing edge doubler.

I'm just wondering, what is the advantage going from a 12M wing to a 13M wing?

Hi Ralph,

I can't comment on the Woodstock, but looking at the Windrose information sheet, which details both the 13m and 15m wings, the following is probably true for the 13m Woodstock too:

Higher Aspect Ratio
Larger surface area = lower wing loading
Better L/D
Lower sink rate
Better climb rate
