WING
The wing is similar to the one of RE 2000 and it's a metallic and cantilever wing.
As the fuselage is thinner, the wing wetted surface is higher.

It's composed by 5 parts:
- central section
- 2 half wings
- 2 wing tips

The wing is composed by:
- 4 wing spars (5 for prototypes)
- metal sheet wing ribs sections with holes for weight reduction
- wing top surface stiffened by corrugated metal sheet
- wing bottom surface stiffened by curled-stringers
The wing planform is elliptical (actually almost-elliptical) and:
- airfoil thickness is decreasing from centerline to tip
- biconvex asymmetric airfoils
