Does anyone have a wing root mod for the Duo?
That sharp 90 degree junction on the underside of the wing is right out of the 1970s.
Contacted the usual suspects:
Streifeneder.
US S-H rep.
Lindner.
...With no luck.
Where's Rick Wagner when you need him?
Thanks!

Probably not all that critical on the high pressure side of the wing.
One could make some simple fillets and tape them on. Tuft the area and take some video with and without. This would show if worth doing any more. My guess would be not.
FWIW
