The thing I'm curious about is the wing profile.

Nothing especially new there. *It is a faceted surface. *Lots of
'interesting' characteristics with regard to lift & drag.

You mean not much lift for drag -right?

But what really makes my hair stand on end is the empty weight. *A tad
on the chubby side, in my opinion.

What did you expect from tarps for wing coverings?

Dear MC,

I wasn't referring specifically to this aircraft (too little data)
but to faceted wing surfaces in general.

From what I CAN see ( at least on the lower wing ), the characteristic
transition surface(s) needed to make the faceted portion work, appears
to be missing.
