This is incorrect. Both wings are going down (and both are going forward). They both go down at the same rate, they go forward at different rates (inner wing slower). If you think about it, that means that the inner wing has a higher AOA. Todd Pattist - "WH" Ventus C (Remove DONTSPAMME from address to email reply.) Thank you for clarifying again for me. I sure love this stuff but I sure don't have the background to truly understand it! But I sure love flying gliders! Jim
